good things

Badminton is the greatest game EVERRRR! Even when your sweetie kicks your ass!

Still working on the laundry mounds!

Internet intermittently returning at home! Whoop Whoo!

Budding artichokes! I’m soooo jealous!

Baseballlllllllllll games!

When he makes me food.

When I make breakfast.

Being part of Jennifer’s family birthdays. <3

Getting to slug the shit out of the second pinata!

The new splash fountains (Riverfront and River Road Park)! Yayyy free places for kiddoes to get wet!

Soft serve! Hot damn you amaze me!

Exclamation points!

Homemade ice cream (yes, I still think of it!)

Blueberry picking? (it seems like such a charming thing to do…right? we’ll see tonight, j&j!)

The smell of tomato plants.

Cucumber plants and their enormous leaves.

Eating sooooo much salad: greens, beets, carrot chips, sunflower seeds, broccoli, red peppers, pineapple, dried cranberries, cheese, and sometimes grilled chicken.

Picking up where we left off (you know, if we had left off in a really good place). :)

Coming home to lil’ nude babes splashing around in the pool.

Not looking for more things to occupy my time.

Enjoying this new thing called easy, drama-free living. Its nectar is sweeeeet!

Despite a stuffy home, still being madly in love with the sun.

Getting on top of this canker sore issue: could it have been diet soda this whole time? Weird!

Always making these lists to remind myself how good life can really be.

The music V introduces me to! Uh! Yeeeeahhhhhh! Uh! Uhhhh!

Adding to my dream garden.

Hooray for intermittent internet access!

Outdoor summer games are so great ;). Inbetween being sick we've been enjoying ladder ball, which sounds ridiculous, but it's a lot of fun!

yes, yes, yes.

there's literally little time in my life left for petty drama or cynicism. what's good is good - and the intentions are pure.

it is amazing how things can feel right again so quickly. thank you for giving me a second chance.
