dailyX – 29 jun 2017
Another week of pushing to get in some “fun” time, whether it be a new experience or taking time to return to an old favorite. I’m tired and would rather just nap and read, but making time for interesting experiences does help with lessening the feeling of drudgery. I know that time is running out
