Hey Boo Boos!! It’s been a minute. So a lot has changed (but not really tho).
This officially marks 1 year in “She Shed.” I was feeling kinda down about it until I saw Heather McMahan is still blowing up air mattresses herself. Hers may or may not be more luxurious than mine... IDK So shout out to her for being this season's inspiration.
