More camping pictures, tra la lee

morning camp
Happy Friday, blerg! I just finished up a nice short day at work and now I’m here finishing up these camping pictures from last weekend.

This weekend it is only supposed to be in the low 60’s, and rainy. Booooo, hiss.

Tonight Joshy and I are finally taking that archery lesson he bought us 58358439 months ago, hooray! Then I’m meeting with my support group tomorrow for brunch. Mmmmm, bruuuuuunch.

And then…who knows, I have no plans. Maybe put a few more things online for our local “Buy Nothing” group. I successfully “released” about 7 bottles of sunless tanning lotion the other day. It’s kind of nifty–you just take a photo of something you want to get rid of, people “bid” for it, you pick a person, and then they come pick whatever the item is off your front porch.

Next I’d like to get rid of a funky twin-sized futon mattress that we somehow acquired from one of Corinne’s old roommates. We’ve never used it for anything and it’s taking up valuable closet space.

In other news, I am still pregnant! 8 weeks and 6 days, and just as hungry as always. Yesterday I ate two donuts. The second one was a mistake.

The power of using eggshells to fertilize your plants: a few years ago, this guy was down to only one bloom! 💙💙💙 thanks @corinne_spoja for the best gardening tip evah
Our “Endless Summer” hydrangea is gorgeous this year!

Hey, where did this big ass iris in my backyard come from? I don't remember them last year.
And look at this massive purple iris that showed up in the backyard! I don’t remember having irises last year. Huh.

Dog day afternoon. 🌞
I have spent many a relaxing afternoon on the back porch on my lounge chair already this year, listening to the soothing sounds of the neighbor children screaming at the top of their lungs. Sigh. I often want to scream back, but I have to be the “adult”, dammit.

Graffiti in nature.
Graffiti in nature. After I type this blather I’m going to take the girls to the dogpark. And then maybe a trip to the library.

So many berries overhead.
I keep eating under-ripe salmonberries. Note to self: STOP IT.

It's Friday! Who's gonna have fun in the sun this weekend? We are we are.
Last Friday (was it Friday?) I went to the dog park at the Edmonds Marina with the girls and Christy.

Wild roses smell so good.
Wild roses at the beach, mmmm.

Wet pets in the Sound today. 💦
I also had a picture of Christy and I at the beach, but I deleted it because my face looked fat. Ha! Ha! Sigh.

Fresh library book, incorporating a lot of things I like: mystery, yoga, and dogs. And it takes place in Seattle. Alriiiight!
After a couple months of non-fiction I am back to reading mysteries again.

Relaxed Cub.
Bear Cub needs a summer cut pretty darn quick.

Same, Chelsea. Saaaaame.
Me too, Chelsea. Meeeee tooooooo.

Today. 💚
We never get tired of this!

Picked up an interesting read at the library today.
This was an interesting read: the psychological profile of 12 famous people. Marilyn was borderline, Einstein was autistic, Lincoln was clinically depressed, Princess Diana was bulimic and a cutter.

💚
Speaking of depression, I haven’t had any or any trouble sleeping, for that matter, since going off my Trazadone for this pregnancy. I DO however get up about 4 times a night to pee, UGH.

Talking my MIL into making this quilt. Isn't it the cutest?! 🐶
I really want Fleeta to make this quilt for the baby! Isn’t it the cutest???!

Nothing like a big ol' fresh canvas! 🎨
Ah, nothing like a fresh canvas! I am currently painting something for the guest room. It’s a complete rip-off of a Polly Apfelbaum, so I’m embarrassed to share the progress, but still, it will be nice.

Hi! I'm so happy the sun is out again.🌞
All dressed up for my ultrasound last week. We saw the heartbeat! Mawwwww.

Sandal weather returns! 💙💚🌟
Sandal weather is my favorite weather.

THAT’S ALL, FOLKS! Have a fabulous weekend.

  1. Congrats on the baby! I wish I could tell you that the peeing goes away, but it doesn’t. Your new best friend will be every toilet within a 30 mile radius. 😜
