Just Do You!
Carl and I have a sweet relationship — but to be honest, there are times we don’t see eye-to-eye. You know… “different strokes for different folks.” He likes the thermostat at that temperature. I like it there. He is a comedian — I’m not! I’m the one who laughs again and again even though I’ve…
