Try to be like the turtle - at ease in your own shell.

*Over the Weekend*

(my weekend is really Sunday & Monday)

the boyfriend was amazing enough to build us a Veggie Planter

he did such a good job! 

I even went and bought him some Bud Light

we were admiring his handy work 

when we noticed that the ground in the planter was moving

*we hadn't put any soil in the box yet*

(thank goodness)

*Surprise*

Baby turtles started to pop out of the ground

5 in all

I don't normally pick books because of the cover

even if they do have a naked Barbie on them

I listened to a story by David Sedaris

on This American Life

and decided it was time to read one of the books

that people are always recommending to me

they were right

I'm loving it

Bridges are closed

roads are slick

we are snuggled up next to the fireplace

watching movies

spiking our coffee with whipped cream vodka

*today I am thankful for blankets with sleeves*
