Bridge Builders Wife/Life

I have totes for kitchen stuff, a tote for household misc., suitcases with wheels, bags with pockets and even have bags for my bags. I get tired of complaining, I run out of positive affirmations to tell myself to keep making it through the day. I miss my home, not only the physical home, but mostly the feel. I miss routine, I miss co
