Just couldn’t shut my head off last night. Not so much worried about anything… just couldn’t [...]
OK, let’s talk about yesterday.
Got up at the usual time, despite my wish to sleep later. Made a pot of coffee for Gail even though I couldn’t have any. Gail gets a headache when she doesn’t get her morning jolt — and the last thing she needs on top of the head cold I gave [...]
