hey there<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since my employer closed up shop, we had to make a trip to return our Xfinity internet equipment. Mainly because we can get cheaper internet through the state, anyway. When we were returning the equipment, Arabella was playing with an Android tablet when the alarm started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was not impressed by this, but did quickly pose for a photo to remember the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It wasn’t long after that that she got the same sickness that Luca had earlier in the month. I knew she was sick as she wanted to sit by me and cuddle nonstop. Not the worst thing – wish she would do it this often when she isn’t ill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What else?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We took another trip to the non-profit coffee shop here in town that helps those who need food. Fantastic place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also started a “Rooted” series at church. It was started by Mariners church (one that we have been to when we lived in So Cal.), and this program is used across the world. Typically, we would need to pay for the event, but in light of our recent news, our church covered the cost of our attendance. So, each Tuesday for the next 10ish weeks, we will be meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Around the house, we have been trying to clean up a bit. As such, we have also been trying to use the abundance of candles that we have lying around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s about it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
