I learned a lot about some folks this week. Whew.

Gardening pages are getting real interesting. One I’m a member of and the other was just in my feed.

I’m sure Carson would scoot over for you. As long as he can then lay his head and some of his upper body on you. And you don’t move. And you scratch his head. Super easy.

This is a really goofy observation, but I’m watching Love is Blind to distract me from, y’know, everything.

If I made a drinking game out of every time someone—and all the seasons do this!—says “At the end of the day,” my liver would crap at the end of the week.

Distraction for today: Snow in Washington.

Same. So I’ve been watching Love is Blind from other countries. Germany, with Sweden and Italy coming soon. I have to be present and can’t scroll on my phone if I want to know what’s happening. It’s almost mindfulness, though I’m watching UK now, and I’m still mindlessly picking up my phone :/

It was soooo cold! But I didn’t do the polar plunge this year on New Year’s Day, so this was my halfway-through-January-mini-plunge.

I thought toes, but now that you ask, I’m questioning which one it is.

Titlow Beach in Tacoma this morning. Stuck my little tootsies in the very cold water and took some pics. Not at the same time.

The ceiling was cool.

I loathe this. It was such a problem at Carson that I can’t see someone doing it now without getting big mad, lol.

I reached my goal of reading 350 books this year. Briefly thought about going for 400 next year and then laughed because my goal for next year needs to be to get the hell outside more.

Had I seen this earlier, I would have said yes. Ina Garten did blue cheese and walnut crackers years ago. Glad you found something!

Almost reached my escapism…ahem…reading goal. Twelve more to go!

Are we now antiques?! 😭

Nash says, hey, how you doin’?

Bitey face champions

I’ve got the weight of the world on my back…

That third one is…interesting.

Christmas decoration in bags and boxes, ready to be put up. And a good boy (dog).

Slowly rebuilding my follow list. Not sure everyone’s made it over from the bad place yet.

Also, anyone else need some cheer and already decorating for Christmas?

I’m definitely thinking about Picket Fences still.

It may be almost bed time, but that made my day!

Snuggle butts

Fingers crossed!

No shame! I’m very happy I’ll be in bed at a reasonable hour.

First quarter crawl! I like how we are now keeping it to AARP hours, lol.
