Lux et umbra vicissum…

Our bedroom’s a bit of a mess, but that’s not so different from normal. I don’t have enough donations to stuff two large suitcases like I was hoping to, so I’ll take two medium-size cases to make things easier on me. I’ll be able to fit almost all of my personal belongings […]
