Another week down, and another week of not running… between my wife being sick and our son getting over a strep infection, it’s been another one of those weeks. Toss in a snow day, a late school start, and a … Continue reading
Another Monday… Another Snowday
Seems like since I got back from Disney, the trend has been Mondays with either late starts or school closing due to snow, ice, or a combination of both. The kids haven’t been to school a full 5-day week since … Continue reading
