Sunday Night Interlude

Whoops.  This is when I usually update with the schedule for the week.  I brought my laptop with me and everything.  Unfortunately, I didn't bring my plan book with me.

Hence the 'whoops'.


This is how I look when I'm stuck away from home and deeply annoyed with myself.

You have a test tomorrow (that I do remember) and I'll update the rest of this within the next 24 hours.

Love,
Mrs. L.
