Tragedy Averted

Posted on June 27, 2019 by

Lately my Perfect Moments seem a little out of whack. They are still Perfect, but they seem to be a little different than usual.  Today is no exception. I had had a decent bus ride. It wasn’t great, but the … Continue reading →

Posted on May 28, 2019 by
