Should I Stay Or Should I Go?

October 26, 2016 By Jodi

My incredibly talented friends continue to share their work on Dear Sabrina this week while I'm in Michigan with my mom, preparing for the services--and the arrival of far-flung family and friends--later this week.

A few weeks ago I wrote about starting a happiness project. I'm putting together a mini-project to begin next week (I would have preferred September 1, but after our recent transatlantic trip I'm a bit behind). For reasons I'll share later, a six-month project fits my life better than a year-long one, so I'm going to start by...
