We survived the move. There were moments when I wasn’t sure we would–at least not with our sanity entirely intact–but we survived. Of course, we were terrified we were going to end up on the local news because our chicken coop door flew open while driving on the freeway (with the chickens inside of the …
Welp, June was crazy. I didn’t do so well on some of my goals, but that’s to be expected, really—getting a house ready to sell is no walk in the park, especially with three small children underfoot. Honestly, I’m sitting in my kitchen right now typing this up and relishing the fact that there are …
