Greetings all! Sorry its been a while since the last blog. I had to share a great word that Erin taught me. The word is CONFABULATION and it describes so many of my situations…both the schmooze-factor and the fact that sometimes I need to fill in the blanks with more amusing details than might have really happened. Feel free to use it in your daily life!
