You gotta start the year with #FIREWORKS right @maishawrites @sheelahl!
If you don't have @matthewburgessj and @catia_chien beautifully brilliant book on #personal, #school or #local #library shelf. Think about doing so in #2026!
Okay, okay, I missed 2 #FigureItOutFriday(s) in a row, but I can still say I hope you all had a #HAPPY start to the #NEWYEAR 🎉!
So, we're 16 days in & half the month is gone, & your resolution may be out the window. Hey, you can still #FigureItOutFriday & take a guess! Right?
