Day 54 I’ve been quiet for a while. A week actually. There just hasn’t been much to report. There still isn’t much to report, but I worry if I put off writing much longer I won’t come back to it at all or at least not for a long time. So here we are. There […]

It is Monday. Have you noticed? Mondays are typically the day I get all my “house” stuff done – cleaning, laundry, catching up on Netflix – you know the important stuff! But today we have no food. Like none. There is 1/3 a gallon of milk and some onions in my fridge and other than […]
