I spent yesterday unpacking my suitcase and catching up on sleep. I was absolutely exhausted from helping my friend pack up, deep clean and move out of the home she has been living in for 11 years. This was followed by a harrowing drive to her new town where we unloaded and deep cleaned the home she will now be living in. But today I am ready for Saturday Smiles Touches of Romance. Saturday Smiles Touches of Romance My home has been absolutely bare since putting away all of the Christmas ... View the Post
