Oh lordy, where did the time go?! I noticed my last blog entry was around the time the world went into lockdown due to COVID19 and since then, I haven’t touched my blog.

Saturday, November 24th, 2018 It's been a week since I moved into this place! Right after moving in, we went to Target to grab some bed sheets and a shelving unit.
