What?? Camping in December? Who camps in December?? Well, there are some people who do camp during the winter months, and some people who I know might like to (for instance, my husband), but that’s just not my thing.

I love to write, yet sitting down to write my first Newsfeed post for The Local Biz website had me stumped—for a long while! I kept putting off the task as much as I could. I realized though, the longer I put it off, the harder it would be to motivate myself to write it. […]
