whether you are related to them or not. The grocery orders alone…  I sat down a few times to write about what was going on in these parts, but this week was a lot of work. I mustered every bit of energy I could to focus on my visions of my warm, beautiful dream vacation in order to stay on task, and sometimes that didn’t even work. The kids were doing a lot of school work and I was helping them when needed, but I think that this whole being at the house all of the time and doing the same thing while trying to stay in shape really worked on all of us. No casualties, though, so I am thankful 🙂
