Sundays are always a little bit stressful for me, because I have two hours in the day - which actually becomes closer to three, where I can do nothing to advance my daily goals, and means I end up feeling rushed the rest of the day - and today I was further derailed by the following ( Read more... )

Restful weekend - managed to sleep in late and then took a trip to the store to get food for the dinner I was going to share with my hubs who is working away this weekend, but who came home for and early dinner. The rest of the day, guess what ( Read more... )
