Creating a Beautiful Life: Taking Some Time Off
The Life With Dee tagline is “creating a beautiful life”. I truly believe that’s a worthy goal but in all honesty, I sometimes struggle with it. Too often I get caught up in “busy” and fail to take time to focus on living. Next weekend we will be hosting the 10th annual Happyland Music Fest…
