For instance, Monday I cleared off my overly decorated dresser and simplified it...sooooo much nicer! And I dusted the house which had been neglected last weekend. Oh, and I attended Matt's first ever softball game. He was so excited and did so well considering he hasn't done anything minutely athletic in about 10 years ( love ya, babe! ) Last night, I bak...
