potential

The pressure in Sam’s head seems to be dropping; we will get confirmation tomorrow. He seemed much better today- doc said maybe he can come home this weekend. That’s it. Just feeling a lot more hopeful tonight. – s.

today

    I haven't forgotten to post; I've just been so busy, and so wiped out. It's been one hell of a week. Soon, my lovelies. Soon.  

in which there are 44 days left

I found this through some of my knitting groups- there are plenty of [...]

in which I have an outstanding mail day
