Hello! TGIF!

I hope you’ve all had relatively smooth and successful weeks. I didn’t feel well this Monday, so mine didn’t start off great, but I’m thankfully feeling much better now. This weekend’s weather is supposed to be decent (60F, cloudy), so we’re planning on starting the mountain of work that is organizing our garage. I’m still in the naive frame of mind that this task is going to be ‘fun’, but I prefer that to the underlying feeling of dread I can sense building up, so I’m just going with it. Wish us luck! We will definitely need it.

Now, time for some favorites!
