Monday Memos & A Special Shannon Squeeeee!!!

To dream anything that you want to dream. That's the beauty of the human mind.
To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will.
To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed.
-Bernard Edmonds

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.
-Henry David Thoreau

Before I get to the reminders, contest, etc. I want to say

CONGRATULATIONS SHANNON!

It has been quite hard to keep my fingers from typing this information! For those of you unfamiliar with her blog, (which should be NONE of you), she is a fantastic blogger to follow (soon you should see her in action in a certain VLOG...)but more than that she is an AMAZING Author! I cannot wait to see her book on my bookshelf & all around the world!
Congratulations Shannon. You deserve this ;o)
