Just last night, my little guy got a My Mother Tried. I won't be posting pictures.

Yesterday's #RomanceFit was a kid-paced hike on a neighborhood trail + an adult-paced, hurry-before-the-sun-goes-down powerwalk on the neighborhood sidewalks.

Office lamp broken. Writing by task light + screen glare. But here regardless! #5amwritersclub

Happy Monday @5amwritersclub. May you have smooth writing sessions all week long!

Early morning grogginess really has a way of building up by the time Friday #5amwritersclub rolls around.
