With all the social distancing going on lately and Charlotte's impending implementation of a shelter-in-place policy for the next three weeks, I'm thanking the heavens that last Friday saw the release of Animal Crossing: New Horizons for Nintendo Switch, a game that's all about getting outside and being social.Of course, if you were to ask … Continue reading Year 3, Day 28

Year 3, Day 15
Miles spent the last two days at home with a cold, coughing profusely and generally growing increasingly grumpy as the days stretched into the afternoons.

Year 2, Day 261
I'm not sure why or how this happened, but the last two nights of sleep have been better than any I can remember in the last year.
