I have not written anything too strenuous in a while now. My plan was during summer break from teaching I would spend my time writing, playing the guitar, and working out with a little house work on the side. I started with a strong resolve. What I didn't count on was how lazy I really …

My OCD rejected that phrase because it didn't make sense to me. Plus, unfortunately I'm not fluent in math. Writing at least …
Day 7 of renovation. Not much has changed. I was hoping I could add some videos here, but I have to upgrade and I hate paying for things. Free is always best. Cheap not so much. With cheap, I get a year long renovation. To be fair, my husband did spend today cleaning his office. …
