But I can't fetch them from after school (which I do 4 days a week),

After school care until dad can fetch them? Take the school bus home and have a local teenager for a few hours?

I can't believe prices are so high in Cincinnati! They're still very cheap (relatively) in Indiana. (But crazy here in Seattle)

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

I just got back from spending All The Money at Target and Costco. The firm is going to pay me back for most of it, but cat litter was on sale at Costco and car food was on sale at Target so I went overboard on both.

Time to think of free things to do for the rest of the weekend.

Because books.

What kind of food does your car eat?

What kind of food does your car eat?

The sad part is I read that and just kinda went "yeah, sure, car food, like junk food that you eat in the car?" and it didn't occur to me until I read Amy's post that it was a typo!

Because books.

For a minute even I thought, Is she talking about motor oil? Windshield wiper fluid?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Costco has cheap gas, so I thought she had just reversed the stores.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have Taken Steps toward Operation: Adult Sofa Purchase! I sat on some floor models and got some swatches at both Crate & Barrel and West Elm! Am leaning toward this one in a color to be determined, but not leaning hard enough to take advantage of the free delivery that ends tomorrow.

OH! I was wearing my cryptid shirt on my errands and three different people said they liked it and then asked what it meant.

Total win!

My damn tiger lilies are already coming up, which kinda foils my plans to put down weed barrier and cover it in sand and mulch (they're too high to poke through on their own now.) Damned snow kept coming and foiling plans. Still might be able to put up low walls, but another summer of battling ivy, I suspect.

But all the detritus is raked up, front and back.
