Posted on May 22, 2014May 22, 2014by Lisa

Pocket scrapbooking is turning out to be just what I needed right now. It’s so therapeutic. I try not to talk about it much because I don’t want to bring anyone down or be a complainer, but I’ve been having problems with my left leg for going on three years. Is that crazy or what? […]
