GET YOUR DAZZLE BACK
The only thing that used to get me out of bed in the morning was the thought of the Budweiser hidden in the fridge. Yes, my boyfriend-at-the-time and I used to “hide” the beer from each other so the other one wouldn’t drink it. In a fridge that was stocked with nothing but old soy …
Want to hear something crazy? All that stress, overwhelm and anxiety we regularly experience – is self-inflicted. That’s right. We do it to ourselves.
