Lurgy, Laundry, and Loads of Books

Earlier this month, I battled a rather annoying lurgy that sapped my energy and stuffed my head with so much congestion I could barely sleep for several nights in a row. Not the most delightful way to kick off the post–Term 1 school holidays. My grand plans to tackle Mount Washmore and get some solid […]
