I often lie in bed at night, waiting to fall asleep with my husband snoring in my ear and think about things that didn’t get done during the day.  ‘I wanted to clear the clutter from the dining room, I wanted to cook that dish just a 1/2 hour longer, I wanted to write that blog post and have a [...]
