Stuck, but thinking about Lightfoot and Dad
I’m behind again. Wednesday: was out late with Twitter friends… no post. Thursday: had an overly-intense workout that left me in much pain (more on this later — much learned). Was in bed early (unlike me) and very sore… no post. Friday: resto… Continue reading
