Three Things: Quiet Moment Edition
After a week like last week, and looking ahead to the weeks to come, I know I (and I suspect many others) could use a few quiet moments of reflection. Let’s write about such a moment.

There’s nothing better than a foggy day to set a mood. Mood for what, exactly? That’s for you to decide and then write about. Go!
