I had planned to make a fabulous lunch at home today. Keyword: had. Instead I did a last minute good deed and helped Bobby out. He bought a new bed but they were supposed to come deliver it during his class, so I graciously agreed to wait in his apartment for the delivery guy. Now […]

Dreary day.
I woke up this morning to a noise outside my window. I couldn’t figure out what it was, but then I opened the blinds and saw this: Yuck! The wind was so strong it was whipping the rain extra hard against the window. I knew right then and there that it would be oatmeal for […]
Got some time on my side.
Good morning everyone! Thank you so much for all your kind comments yesterday 🙂 I finished editing my paper late last night and slept in this morning, so I’m feeling much less stressed and much more refreshed to say the least! I’ve got some time on my side this morning, so I thought I would […]

Getting there.
Good morning! It’s another blue sky day here in Chicago, and temperatures are expected to be in the 70s! Spring may be my favorite season, but I have to admit there’s something to be said about old man winter – he makes me appreciate the change of seasons even more 🙂 I woke up early […]
