Flashback Friday Introductions
Happy Flash Back Friday Glow Getters! In my early to mid 20s, I used to get those email chains with quizzes for friends and family to learn fun facts about one another. They used to start off like "Welcome to the 2010 edition of getting to know your friends...". Did you ever get those? If so, did you love em or hate em? Well me, I loved getting them, and was that friend who was always gonna answer the questions and forward around to learn more about my girls and vice versa. I actually dug through my email awhile ago, and found an old one a friend sent me. So today, I thought I'd bring that quiz out of retirement to end the week on a fun note and for you to learn more about me.
