I have been super busy lately! First, good news is that I have been hitting the gym a lot lately. I went to Zumba twice because a friend was teaching, and Rob and I have been playing in the “CrossFit” room at the gym. My Playground I love this room and it is luckily at […]
Party All Night
What a busy weekend! Friday was spent just cleaning the house and doing homework. Saturday was busy, busy getting ready for my friend Ida from college to come in for a visit. She was only staying the night but it was bound to be loads of fun. She only lives about 2.5 hours away and […]
