WOW! What a WEEK! I'm all about being open and honest, so let me share a little honesty with you.
I wasn't feeling very #PositiveThurs last night. I had to deal with a bunch of car issues and I didn't really check in with the #PositiveThurs community yesterday because I didn't have the 'oomph' to nurture the community.
BUT LOOK AT YOU GUYS! You rocked it! This week had the most contributors. I'll be notifying 130 UNIQUE users that they are in the #PositiveThurs recap. Yeah. That is absolutely AMAZING!!
So Thank you. Thank you for BEING A COMMUNITY. Supporting each other and celebrating each others joys. YOU INSPIRE ME. Thank you!!
