* What happened to Monday's post? There wasn't one. I did to many things last week. Yes, it woudn't be too many things for most people, but it's a spoonie thing. I'm still feeling like I've been steam rolled. Monday was first of the month errand day, and I just didn't have the concentration to do much by way of actual useful things after like read and aggregate news. Odds are, this is going to be a nother week of me running endlessly to try to catch up. Sorry.
