I took the next step in weight loss today with the help of my ummmmmm “soooooo happy to help” daughter Selena. We sorted, we steamed, we grouped outfits and my “sooooooo wonderful helpful daughter” Selena took pictures of all of the items (all maybe 200? could be more… maybe) all to be sold on ebay.

Updating old posts for SEO is like changing the batteries in your smoke detector. Nothing flashy, but suddenly everything works better. I’m tightening things up, adding clearer headings, improving readability, and sprinkling in relevant links where they actually make sense. Not keyword soup. Not robotic nonsense.
