Will Marcus Prove Me Wrong? A New Challe...

Well, I’ve decided to take on a new challenge (as if I didn’t have enough to do). Except this challenge is more mental than physical. I guess we need to keep things balanced, eh? Earlier this year I wrote a post explaining why I didn’t want to be a Beachbody coach. I decided to do this after being inundated with comments on my blog from Beachbody coaches, practically...

Now that $600 will be going towards our credit card...

I gathered up all the pictures I could find and scanned them into my computer. I taught myself how to make cheesy collages and spent hours on forums learning how to retouch and restore old photographs. Little did I know this was just the beginning of my...
