I'm still fine tuning the whole Time Management Thing. A lot.

Five things for three days.

1. I didn't need a coat today. Let me repeat that; I had a long sleeve shirt and a sweater, but it was sunny and just warm enough that I didn't need a coat today!2. To celebrate our return to above-freezing temperatures -- and to locate some peace -- I ( Read more... )
