Decided to work from home yesterday. Was nice to hang out in sweats and call into meetings from the recliner. Back in the office for one more day. I think we've given up on a major vacation this summer and started planning for the summer of 2022. Would seem like that's kicking the can far enough down the road we should be able to schedule something. But with a new European lockdown, it seems like nothing can be counted on.

We’re considering going to Hawaii again, like we did last year just before the pandemic hit; to the big island this time and sans kids. It’s doable right now. Could really use the breather 🥵

Welp, no pic and I forgot what soap I used. Had to dial back to the mild razor after dancing with the RX yesterday. All is good. No alum sting.

Just grab whatever is on the top of the stack and say that you remembered what it was. No one here would know it isn't the soap you used.

It was sitting on the counter and I could picture it, but I didn't recognize a name on the list I keep on my phone. For all interested, it was A&E the Novelist. :)
