WELCOME
This blog has been around in one form or another since 2010. It’s an amalgamation of who I was, who I am, and who I’m hoping to be. Sometimes it’s about beauty products. Other times (most of the time) it’s about planning. Occasionally there’s business stuff and even rarer board game content.
So thanks for stopping by, reading somthing long-form in a world of fast information, and hanging out with me on my slice of the internet.
Sincerely,
Kayla
