I had a rough time sleeping last night. I think I have too much on my mind lately, plus Emmett woke up after a really bad dream. All things considered, I’m feeling pretty good. The boys got off to school in good form and on time. Unfortunately, I haven’t accomplished much today because I’m so …

Starting the week off on the right foot
