Making resolutions to form good habits

Making resolutions to form good habits

(ROCKWALL, TX – Jan. 6, 2017) I’ve never been one to make resolutions whenever a new year begins. Why? I don’t know. It might have something to do with the fact that I’ve never really been a goal-setter or a planner. I kinda just live my life as it comes, and it seems to have […]

The no presents, no Santa, no-Christmas-kind-of-broke.  I don’t remember the reason whether it was a string of medical bills or a load of untimely repairs; all I remember […]
