So, I mentioned in my last post about how everyone and their mom (literally, everyone and their mom; I’m not just saying that as a figure of speech) is telling me to take it easy these days. Here’s my confession: I have no clue what “taking it easy” should look like. Sure, I’m only working [...]
It’s finally feeling like summer around these parts. We had several weeks of crappy, rainy, windy, wintry weather, which left Brett’s mom (who was visiting at the time) and me shivering and looking outside with confusion and, let’s face it, a small sense of being personally affronted — how could it be early June and [...]
