It is past 4am.

Thankful For A Life I Can’t Help But to Like: My Own :-)
Right now, I am sitting on my bed in a T-shirt and socks, surrounded by pink and white pillows, typing on my Macbook Pro, reading blogs and updating theFreshXpress.com while watching Sex and the City reruns on DVD (#TeamAidan!).
