BLOG: Gratitude Attitude

Posted on by Betsey Horton
Tuesday. We are having a heat wave here in HK. That means everyone else is sitting inside enjoying the air on whilst I, a not-so-recent refugee of the unforgivingly cold and terrible winter weather of South Dakota, sit outside and bask in the glorious heat. I never want to experience...Read More

BLOG: The Forgotten Side Quest

Philo of Sex and Love Sunday morning. Went to the coffee shop to get my coffee to-go so I could come back home to snuggle up in bed and write while watching the rain outside all day. Perfect! I tried doing this yesterday with insta-coffee packets, but they just don’t...Read More
