Weekly Goals: I made my three blog posts last week, but no comments on anyone else’s blogs; the fun of dealing with house repairs, contractors, insurance, and my “day job” isn’t leaving me a lot of time or energy.

Writing Wednesday: When LIFE Happens
Weekly Goals: I made both three blog posts last week, but only one of my three comments on the blogs of others; our home was invaded by another slab leak, so the last few days, my activities have been… interrupted.
