Challenge Response

Okay I admit it: “I am a dipper!” Keeley Schroder kindly provides us with a prompt for everyday of the month, but I pick and choose which ones I will respond to. This is only my second one for April … but that’s better than none isn’t it? Besides, the month isn’t over yet, so I could go on a run.
