Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Tired from yesterday! And the day before that, and the day before that, I'm sure.

So I saw that Pivot is playing Friday Night Lights season 1, so I'm finally watching it! It's funny putting all the pieces together, because I know so many of the names and a little about the characters and etc. Also, that Gaius Charles is basically unrecognizable from Grey's Anatomy.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Because you have a done a ton of stuff lately?

I have no inclination to do laundry today. Truth be told, I have no inclination to do much of anything today, but laundry is the thing that seems most in need of doing.

First floor done. Will leave second until after swim. Which I ought to go do soon.

I did some stain samples last night and am trying to get good pictures, but the colors come out all wrong. I know one is a definite no. The other 3? Ahrg. One might be too brown, but might warm up if I use a warmer varnish (which I don't have, will have to get and try.)

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

But, there is so much more to do.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

So far this morning, I have taken Charlie for his usual walk around the block, gone to breakfast and TJs, taken Charlie to the park for a slightly longer walk, even though he still hates it, spent too much money at the pet store, and bought some flower seeds.

I have work work to do, and way more cleaning than I will actually do, but first I believe I will slounge

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

So far, I've removed myself from bed, started a loaf of bread for the week (I haven't managed to get around to soaking a bunch of beans yet), and consumed some coffee.

I'm still not in outside clothes.

I want to go back to bed.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I turned on my laptop to order groceries for the week, but instead I'm browsing Zappos and reading articles about how much revenue NYC lost by suspending alternate-side parking for all of February due to snow. (Answer: almost $8 million!! The city normally collects $270,000 daily on ASP tickets.)

I got some clean laundry put away. I might have enough clothes to get through the week without actually doing laundry today, make that future -t's problem...

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Jessica, that's a ridiculous amount of money. CRAZY.

In Lower Michigan, every lake (and there are LOTS of them) is surrounded by cabins, so finding one that isn't in view of other cabins is highly unlikely. And many were only intended for summer use so lack a fireplace (besides, that's how raccoons get in) although some have wood burning stoves. I would expect Wisconsin is similar. Anything more remote and winterized was probably built to be a hunting lodge

This is definitely true where my brother and SIL live (pentwater). All of the summer cabins there are in sight of other places and they are all summer cabins. Or nicer. I love going to visit there.

I just made roasted cauliflower and leek soup with miso broth. It's delicious. But Noah declared it the worst soup he's ever had. Grace liked it well enough. I know that I will stop eating in about an hour or two, but right now, I'm starving.
