Monday, Monday
This morning I had every intention of sleeping in since it’s a beautiful day off of work – but nope, my body clock is set on waking when it’s barely light out because it has a major case of FOMO. (fear of missing out). I mean, what if I miss the trash truck rumbling by?…

A Day Trip Away
This past week was quiet, followed by a filled up weekend. I am technically off work for a few weeks but the phone calls and emails continue to trickle in with people needing things…but it’s still been a welcome, much needed break. I had grand plans of cleaning out our storage shed as well as…
