Hi everyone. I am so sorry for being MIA these past few months. I will be posting a video about some of what's been going on and why I haven't been around.
I wanted to read some emails tonight thinking I would have an easier day today but it was actually harder than most days so I need to just rest and hope to get a video out to you guys in the next day or two. I really appreciate all of your support and patience.

Much love and thanks to you all.
Kim
Had a fun time this weekend at a birthday party and wanted to share my GIF. btw..I learned it's pronounced JIFF with a soft G not GIFF with a hard G. The more you know I suppose.
