As a teen, I remember my buddy and I would start listening to Christmas music as early as July some years!

Do you have any scars? I have too many to count. What's funny, most of them are the result of living life big - having fun. Like the one on the top of my foot from an incident at the lake when I was a little girl. Or the one on my thigh from mountain biking while on vacation in Colorado. Or the scar on my calf from a road ...
