No, it's shiny! I like to meet new people. They've all got stories...

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

Yay, good con! And yay happy couple getting married!

I like yard work but I am not particularly good at it. And I wish I had more time for it. But I like an unruly yard, more sublime than beautiful, so it sort of works out for me if not for my neighbors.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, I feel super awkward about the invite now! But it would be great to meet your fam. I'm proud of your niece, it seems like she really came into her own while she was out here.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

So, anyone have a link for a semi-reputable online self-test thingie for ADHD? I should probably finally take a look at it.

Jilli, you could start here: [link]

I've got just the right amount of yard for me. Sure, there is a lot more I would do if I had all the time and money in the world, but I can keep up with it as is (and be happy with it) and do incremental improvements as time and money allow.

Steph - I've been a reading machine this weekend. I'm on Delivered from Distraction now. There are only a few weeks of school left, so we are going to experiment with ways to set routines/reminders. Over the summer I hope to find him an ADD therapist/coach.

That can be really helpful. You're a good mom, Suzi.

BUNNIES: [link]

They are apparently a New Zealand White and Lionhead cross and seem very sweet so far.

It's official, I got too much sun today. Thought I was being careful. Apparently, I can sunburn through that t-shirt. At least I had a tank on under it for the morning?

Our wings are not tired.

And yay happy couple getting married!

They bring on the smiles, so I had to share. They are on a roller derby team and have a zillion friends so I have been enjoying lots of pictures posted from friends and family yesterday and today. Weddings are awesome. They seemed to be in minimal panic in the preceding days which was good. It truly worked out that it was yesterday and not today. They had horrible weather for an outdoor ceremony today, including tornado in Nebraska! They did say it was crazy windy on the bridge.
