ROMANTIC HOMES

9

Panicked me: Breathe. In and out. In and out.

Self-assured me: I just placed an ad in Romantic Homes magazine for http://www.alovelything.com/

Panicked me: Breathe. In, out, in, out.

Self-assured me: It’s a huge step. Like, I’m really in business now. Really, truly.

Panicked me: Deeeeeep breath.

Self-assured me: Romantic Homes has been a favorite of mine for so long — love all the eye candy pictures and inspirational stories. It’s the perfect place for me to be.

Panicked me: Oh my GOD! Am I crazy?
