The things that I could have controlled, where I should have woken up on time- and I should have talked to you about my family's, like time, timeliness and how stressed it makes me when I'm late to things with them- and also that the dogs could have just stayed in the car, those were the things I could have controlled and I should have controlled, and I didn't do that.
Imagine planning a simple day out to find the perfect Christmas tree, only for everything to go completely off track. In this engaging episode of Bold Beautiful Borderline, hosts Sara Amundson and Laurie Edmundson invite Andrew to join them in dissecting a day that didn't quite go as planned.
