Wow, a lot of stuff happened. Be positive about the things to come. You never know what the bad stuff is good for.

Love and hugs, Sanna

Woot, five months! That's not bad. Yes, I'm counting too. Maybe counting until Spring Break would be less daunting though...

I was supposed to paint my house last summer, didn't happen, so we'll try this summer instead. The plan is to at least pick out colors over Spring Break. Christmas break is way too short to paint.
