Sunsets & Dolphins: Anniversary in Orange Beach, AL

Posted on May 29, 2022May 30, 2022 by astoldbymeso

If you read my previous post on the things to do in Orange beach, you’ll know that Mr. Epic and I recently took a weekend trip to Orange Beach to celebrate our anniversary.

Best Overnight Acne Spot Treatments

Posted on January 14, 2023March 18, 2023 by astoldbymeso

Posted on July 3, 2022July 3, 2022 by astoldbymeso

For a very long time, I prided myself in my ability to connect with people, even people I’d just met. Somehow, I was able to strike deep conversations with strangers at a bus stop, acquaintances from work, and even sustain conversational depth with long-time friends.
