Check in for the new week
My week's are always super crazy. This is nothing new, but there are some spaces for me to do regular things like go to the dry cleaners and to a doctor. Usually, I don't have time for even that. It's week 6 in my semester. I think that by week 8 or 9 I might actually be able to go on a walk with my husband in the morning (family time and exercise combined).
Here's what week 6 looks like:
