Tuesday wasn't a "normal" day... I was able to hop in the shower and be ready for the day BEFORE lunch time, and so I texted Brett to see if he wanted to meet at the Country General Store for lunch because someone needed to see me showered and dressed with makeup on, since I went to all the effort, ha! As I...
Lately, Brett has gotten into this little habit of a mid-evening nap. Once the kids are all tucked in, he will plop down on the couch and take a quick cat nap.
