Well we made it through another week, barely. What was supposed to be a trip to somewhere warm turned into a stomach bug taking over our house followed by strep throat. It just doesn’t end. In happier news though. My brother and sister in law welcomed their baby girl this week, and it was truly just what we needed for some feel good joy. I hope all of you are staying healthy, though from the looks of my text threads, many are not. Either way, hang in there, and hopefully enjoy this extra long list of good reads.

Here’s the best of the week…
