Navy Blue and Grey: Boring or Just “Plain” Smart

I’m probably the most boring dresser alive. My favorite clothes are navy blue and grey. I like stripes and solids and that’s about it.

Living in the “Getting It Done”

“The biggest mistake I made is the one that most of us make while doing this (raising children). I did not live in the moment enough.
