Hugs on the R's--you've got the right attitude :)

ReplyDeleteIt just shows they lack taste, and the right match is still out there, waiting!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Devon, they totally lack taste. Your time will come my girl and when it does it will be magnificent
ReplyDeleteHugs on the rejections, Melissa - keep on at it :) I've no doubt you'll make it!

ReplyDeleteAh double hugs on the R's. They're never any fun. But yes let's laugh in the face of them. Please. :)
ReplyDelete(((Melissa))) I've had a few recently. What to do?
