Hello! Week 48. It’s Thanksgiving week (if you celebrate!). Cooper is home this week, and my life is FILLED with TO-DO lists. Our weekend was full of house chores. We did a dump run and got rid of a bunch of things. HOORAY!!! We also had dinner with my Dad and Tina. I’m writing this from bed, where I am warm and do not want to move. Could someone please get me a cup of tea? 😉
