What's my favorite season? Summer, baby!!! While I enjoy the festivities that go along with the holiday season, I don't necessarily enjoy the weather … Continue reading Summer Summer Summertime
Music is a huge part of my life. Even when I don't have something pumping in my headphones or I'm not jamming in my car or singing in the shower, I find myself breaking into song. I could hear a word or phrase that reminds me of a lyric in mid-conversation, and I find myself … Continue reading It’s Music To My Ears

We’re already on Day 5 of #countdownwithheyujas. Time is flying by. Day 1, 2, 3 and 4 are all here. I know I promised holiday themed posts, but this one still classifies.
