WRD: Week 23 -What’s the Time?
Tweet It’s time to get ill, apparently. So, yeah, this week was kind of a wash. I want to say I started off strong, but to be honest (firstly, with myself) I was already sick last week Friday and just fighting it. I’ve been sick more than a week, the worst of it really being…
