Love this post. Great quotes accompanied by thoughtful commentary. Excellent as always.
I LOL’d and nodded at all of these. Especially, not paying bills as a childhood memory and multitasking – screwing up multiple things at once. I’ll be sharing this one for sure!
So inspiring, I love your blog ?
Thank you, Ana! I’m so happy to hear that. That’s exactly why I do this.?
These were so fun, Ronni! I really enjoyed them. I can think of a couple people in my life – some clients, some not – who would appreciate these. Going to pin so I can refer back to them. The multi-tasking definition definitely had me laughing out loud:)
I had so much fun putting this together. I love the multitasking one as well, it’s hilarious and so true.
Thank you so much for pinning and sharing. There’s enough in the collection to please the readers. I always like to ask which one was your favorite?
