I think you would also like Judy Garland's quote"Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else"
Thanks for the friend invite, Debbie! I'm making an effort to NOT add to my TBR very much this year - I don't think it worked too well for Jan - last time I checked I had added over 20!
