    Find some time to do something

    What’s the most fun way to exercise? Whatever feels right in the moment. I have grown to love moving my body. Dancing, lifting weights, yoga, or trying a sport like basketball are all fun.

    If I were to go on a shopping spree right now, I’d hit up Office Depot, or Barnes and Noble. I’m obsessed with things used for writing, and I love to read. Now that I think about it, I think my grandmother may have been programming me from a young age by gifting me office
