Hello, Sunday.  This week sort of dragged but then also sort of flew by? I think that’s where I am most days, wishing that these days that we are in were over, but then realizing I sort of blinked and somehow we’re in August. MID-August.…

Hello, Monday. Did you really want an email from me three days in a row?  I figure I’d give you something to keep that weekend going this Monday morning. I snuck in a quick trip to Chicago this weekend for my godson’s first communion. Time…

Hello, Sunday. Up here in the Mitten, it was sort of the perfect kind of weekend. High 60s, low 70s, sun for day and I made the most of every second by being outside. Tennis all day yesterday, walks and picnics today mean that I…
