Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Happy Birthday, erika!

I slept a lot, but I'm still really sick. Going to a Kroger Little Clinic in a couple of hours.

Hope they're able to help, Steph.

Happy Birthday, Erika!

Even if this is a virus that antibiotics won't help, I just want something to make my throat stop hurting so much.

I'm glad that the big company that bought us already had a strong culture of working remotely and hybrid. For one thing, we probably wouldn't be getting out of Texas the way we are.

And in house news, today they're breaking ground on our new house in Virginia! Estimate to complete it is 5 months, which I'm sure means at least 6.
