the night shift locusts.
Monday was the first day back at work for Hubby. He had been home since December 19th. Monday was also the first day I didn’t have to try to control myself while he opened the fridge and stood there, then…
happy new year.
Here at my house we are starting off the new year with only 5 spoons. Again. That kid, Not Me, has also managed to lose a tv remote. Again. The missing remote is of course an emergency and a terrible…
