What we need to do sometimes is put ourselves first -- why's that so hard to do? Hope you have a great sale & don't let anyone be mean to you. That couch is amazing! Jan
Thanks Sweet Pea!
I don't think my friend was being mean....he, probably thought, he was sparing my feelings... I'd much rather hear the truth...even if it hurts... than have someone pee on my shoe...and tell me it's rainin'... Eventually...you will discover, it's pee... and oh my....it Stinks to High Heaven!
The Truth Never Smells...
I Love him... anyway...
And...Love You Too!
