I noticed a few blogs I follow joining in the 2011 Ultimate Blog Party; I was intrigued and then could not resist… The past couple weeks have been trying, I am {definitely} in the mood to introduce myself, meet you and have a seriously good time! Milk and Honey Living is a new blog (in the process of being designed)…
This past week has been transformative. Personal loss and the ensuing emotion played a substantial role; it was the process and aftermath that insisted on transformation.
