well.
i didn't love this book.
it was ok. it was interesting.
but
i didn't love it.
the idea was interesting
but the writing didn't draw me in,
didn't carry me along...
i wanted to love it...i mean...it's Margaret Atwood!
but
it was ok....
just not really my thing...
elvis and marilyn,
end of time,
livin' in your car,
fear and conspiracy and futuristic and fatal...
i'm sorry, Margaret Atwood.
i didn't love this one...but it's because of me, not you.
i have not been here in a while...
weddings are in full swing,
work is busy,
the weather is too nice to be inside...
there are books i want to read,
music i want to listen to,
naps i want to take.
a four day weekend that went by in a blur
silly group selfies, family bbqs and fireworks,
sharing a bag of popcorn
and cold cans of pop in a darkened car
while we waited for showtime to start.
wedding on saturday...
beautiful day and a bride and groom so sweet,
their vows made me tear up
along with many others watching.
and then lots of time to work on the bullet journal
and finish up the instagram challenge that
i was late for
#doodlewithusinjune
and even got caught up on
the inner excavation book
i am doing a read-a-long on...
monday was a drive to the trails in bonshaw,
super-perfect doughnuts from the blue goose...
getting a little lost in the woods
and a bit of an irrational adrenaline rush fear
that a pack of wild dogs
might get me...
a racing heart,
a couple of dirt roads,
a snack while sitting on big rocks by a river barefeet in the sun.
today was laying on the deck, sunshine, recuperating from last night's wedding, reading a full book from cover to cover, orange popsicles, elle king, diet coke, and lunch at the dairy bar.
♥ with this photo...it makes me think of fairy tales and paths that lead to dragon caves and trails of breadcrumbs left by orphans looking for witches who wear silver sparkly shoes and sing songs about pirate ships that glow in the night but disappear during the day.
♥ that i have signed up to do this read-along-course again with this girl whose blog i have adored for years...& i love the look of her brand new site!
♥ this little doll's big and bright imagination..."shark girl has the power of sharks"
♥ dan mangan has a new EP!
♥ this website...i am enamored.
♥ and this letter to the female hat wearing dog in the PD Eastman book...gold. pure gold.
♥ and this...well this....broke my heart.
♥ sunny warm fridays off with stirling manning the bbq while i play on the computer in a house that has been freshly scrubbed and laundered...my absolute favorite.
♥ finding this old wedding photo of stirling and i...this just makes me incredibly happy :) :) :)
