Three!

Three more hours until the girls are home from school. Three more days I will be on antibiotics (yes - I am still sick). Three more loads of laundry I have yet to fold. Three more months and the new house will be done.

Three!

• ____TER

There you have it! And like always, the answer will be found later in the comments. See you then!
