Literally, it has felt like just a steady stream of drizzle to moderate rain almost constantly for days now.I don't really mind spurts like this, if I don't have much going on.

Life, and a SPLURGE!
3 day weekend, complete. On to the....first "real" week of school! Technically the boys started last week Thursday, but it was super light.

I mean, we have "kind of" seen some people- obviously we now see my parents, we went to a friend's for a bonfire a few weeks ago and I've seen my neighbors out and about. But in terms of… Continue reading People!!
