So Alpha Hubby left me. Oh, don’t worry. It was against his will. He had to go out of town for work. He hates going out of town. I love it but he can’t always take me. I hate when he can’t take me. So before he left, I fixed him an awesome preview of… Read More Blessed the Broken Road

It typifies Alpha… Read More Oh Happy Day!
