Sundays are a break in the routine.

While Sundays are usually restful in this house it is also a welcome break in the routine.  Normally everyone is home and not working or going to school.  It’s usually a day where dinner is not hurried and finally finished around 9 pm.  So today, for me, it’s a quick trip to the grocery storeContinue reading “Sundays are a break in the routine.”
