“Money always decides whether things get better or worse. They never stay the same.”

The Reckless Oath We Made by Bryn Greenwood

October 3, 2020 by scootsa1000 5 Comments

In early January, I had a lot of gift cards to spend. I have my birthday, my anniversary, and Christmas in December, and I always get at least one card for my favorite bookstore, One More Page Books…and this year I think I got two or three.
