It’s that time again to start thinking about mom! Mother’s day will be here before we know it. Here at AEP we think moms are really great. We also know that moms rarely take the time to do things for themselves. We put ourselves on the back burner more often than not. So in an...
Ok, so I never know what, why or when the mood will strike me to write. That being said I never know what’s going to come out. So here goes. I was just told “wow, those are some shoes, you’re very well coordinated.” lol, thanks man! This got me to thinking about what makes me...
