did one of these, I’ve wanted to try and do one myself. If you’re not interested in the mundanity of my life, this is one to skip. Although I did send it to my husband to make sure it was all cool with him and told him he didn’t have to read the whole thing since it was really long, but a bit later he told me that he thought he wouldn’t read all of it, but then he got invested, so that’s some kind of recommendation I suppose.

We just finished 9 days out of school for spring break, but my older kid woke up sick, so he’ll have to stay home yet another day. I get breakfast for both kids and Dave has a few minutes in between appointments and takes the other kid to school and I get to work.
