Outside my window...

Outside my window....the grey clouds of a summer thunderstorm are looming.

I am thinking....that some homemade vanilla ice cream would hit the spot right about now!

I am thankful...that I don’t have any checking to do or lesson plans to make! Definitely a perk of my new office job at Schneider Farm Fence.

In the kitchen...sits Danl’s new Savage .22 bolt-action , bull-barrel rifle he bought with birthday money. I got to shoot it today and totally annihilated a leaf!

I am wearing...an old dress that I call my “Carrot Branch” dress. The fabric came from WeCare Thrift Store.

I am creating...my dress for Alisha & Pierre’s wedding! Once again, I aspire to channel Princess Kate.

I am going...to go out an d help Daniel reinstall the running boards on Bonnie.

I am reading.... The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and Attention Deficit Disorder In Adults.

(I feel quite strongly that I have this wonderful disorder because…Oh yeah I could really use some chocolate cake!)

I am hoping...to get the orange hall bathroom “minted” this week! And also “Londonified.”

I am looking forward to...flying to Calgary on June 28! And attending Pierre & Alisha’s wedding on July 4! And seeing my little sis tie the knot with Shane on July 12! And listening to my cousin Renae & Erik Olson say their “I do’s” on August 23!

I am learning...that there is nothing like having family that you can count on to always be there for you.

Around the house....things are looking better! I’m still a FlyBaby in the process of becoming completely FlyWashed!

One of my favorite things.... is sitting in my red chair in the evening knowing that the dishes are done and the house has been moderately straightened and broomed while visiting with Daniel about his day or the guns he wants to buy while he relaxes in his ninja turtle green La-Z-boy. (Talk about a run-on sentence!)
