I'm probably talking shit, getting up in my feelings, reading, writing, looking at trees, drinking whiskey, dancing, taking long walks, or doing obsessive research.

    🥾 from yesterday’s hiking church.

    Brown leaves carpet the floor of a small valley running through the woods, with a moss covered bare tree trunk in the foreground and a ridge of rock on one side. A few trees have yellow leaves, the rest are bare.

    I seem to be incapable of using superglue without getting it all over my fingers.

    Side note—cannot currently use Touch ID to unlock my laptop.

    A hand is holding a bottle of superglue with visible dried superglue on three fingers. The background is a counter with the back of a picture.

    Did not plan on spending my Saturday afternoon unclogging the bathtub drain but now I own this badass drain snake and even though it took me 2+ hours I do feel pretty much unstoppable. Except my back hurts and I’m tired so I’m gonna get a snack and lay down now.

    I don’t love that my sunset view is framed by brick wall, parking lot, cafe roof, and power lines. But I do love that sunsets exist & I get to see them. I’ve been lucky enough to live in beautiful environments surrounded by trees and sky and water. I may get that lucky again one day.

    Something my kids appreciate about me is how good I am at those little touches that bring a real high-end aesthetic to our home.

    They don’t tell me how much they appreciate it but I can feel it. They don’t have to say it out loud.
