Hi hi ... OK, so WE'RE MOVING and this episode contains the long version of the story! This was an unexpected decision that we made a little over a month ago. I wanted to wait to share the news, A. Once we knew it was really happening and B. On the podcast where I could really CHAT it out since there are so many moving parts and details. Hope you enjoy ... my personal drama is 100% your entertainment this week. To visit the shownotes, go to abeautifulmess.com/podcast.
