Yakezie Carnival Traveling While Juggling

I must admit, It’s been quite an experience traveling with a toddler to the other side of America for a few days. I’ve definitely gained some new material – but sadly, TUJ has been slightly neglected. It appears that vacationing/traveling with a toddler is a bit unlike vacationing/traveling WITHOUT a toddler and I have failed to juggle it all.

Luckily enough for you though – I’ve received some other pretty interesting reads from some Yakezie Members. The Yakezie is

I am currently a new challenger in this group, so I appreciate those who have supplied me with their posts. I strive to be part of this network someday soon and as such, I hope you find a post or two interesting.
