I’d be lying if I told you that this has been a good week. I have looked forward to this week since the day Keith left for his deployment. This is my last week without him. I thought that I would be spending it preparing for his arrival, finishing up last minute projects, and being just [...]

Saturday, I finally decided that that was the day. We needed to give them up for a number of reasons. I plan to [...]
