(this is my silver fox, nice parking job, eh?)
Wow. I could not have predicted the events of today.
Around 10 a.m. I had the passing thought that I couldn’t take another day cooped up in the house with the girls. I looked at the clock, noted to myself this thought, then continued playing with Beenie and [...]
