The morning was cloudy so I saw today's news in real time

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123453) • United States 19h

I would have been at the pool if it was sunny but it wasn't so I had the news on the TV. I saw The Sean "Diddy" Combs verdict being delivered in real time. (not that I care much about it) I also saw the Idaho killer Bryan...

It is 3pm and the sun is finally out

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123453) • United States 2 Jul

Working on homemade cinnamon rolls

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123453) • United States 2 Jul

My secret pal has struck again

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123453) • United States 2 Jul

for the last time. I actually never got around to posting last month's surprise delivery because I was busy with wrapping up the end of the school year and completely exhausted. They sent a LIFE special edition...

Well I've been somewhat productive tonight since I'm not tired
