Last day

Today was the last day for a while that I’ll be able to sleep past 7:15.  It’s the last day that I’ll be able to sit on the couch with a knitting project, listening to a couple of podcasts, making something for myself without unanswered business email hanging over my head. Tomorrow Neil goes back […]
