Nothing more horrific than a muscle spasm
I didn’t post anything last week. Nothing. Nada. I even missed Flashback Friday. :/ Instead, these two kitties kept me company: I had a perfectly good reason though. In the middle of a combo massive upper respiratory infection & ear Read More…
Wool & Home Improvement
I’m supposed to do a post today about what I’m currently reading, but honestly, I’ve been fairly swamped in home improvement land and haven’t read as much as I’d like. I began reading Wool by Hugh Howey, but I’ve not Read More…
