Happy Monday, all! I hope your week is off to a fabulous start! My Monday started as it has for more than half a year - with a 5K! In early December, I started running a 5k every Monday - I didn't necessarily intend to make it a goal or tradition to run a weekly 5k, but it quickly turned into just that! Today, I ran my 34th weekly 5k IN A ROW. Coming from an asthmatic 35-year-old mommy, with bad ... Read More about We can’t use Jamboard, but …

Chrome Extensions: 2021 Edition
Happy Monday, friends! I'm coming to you from my kitchen this evening, as a try out a new recipe for dinner.
