So my commitment to blog well and often has...um...well....let's just say it's right up there with my commitment to stop eating chocolate. In leu of excellence or frequency I offer you this:
Bullet Points.
-The commercial construction market is slow, so marketing is becoming a priority for my husband, who would rather have his work speak for itself. I keep encouraging Eddie to prostitute himself, and have been affectionately referring to him as my little construction whore. I think he secretly likes it.
-The neighbor's bunnies had bunnies...as bunnies tend to do. My kids have been pestering us to NO END to let them keep the bunnies. They are darling, and I am tempted. I just have to keep reminding myself that 2 years olds tend to love and squeeze bunnies a little too much. Remember "Of Mice and Men", remember how you cried?
-We have another referral for a teen mom to come live in our basement. I'm getting smarter and smarter each time I think through the interview process. Soon I'll be a friggin' genius, jaded, but still a genius.
-We finally got the "sex book" to read to our son - you know the nice christian one with soft watercolor images to explain God's design for intimacy. I asked E if he wanted to read it. He said "No. Mom, sex is disgusting." So I bribed him. He read it. He still thinks sex is gross. I'm hoping that that opinion will last a long long long long long time.
-Our friends are letting us borrow their pop-up camper. So in a couple of weeks we're headed up to Grand Lake. I'm crazy excited. I didn't camp at all last year which is just plain pathetic when you live in one of the most beautiful states in the union.
-My gardens are beautiful this summer. BEAUTIUL. When I am an old lady, and I don't have children underfoot I am going to dig up my whole lawn and plant flowers. They're medicinal even without ingesting them. No matter what's going on in my life I can look at them and my heart feels better. Plus I've vowed never to mow a lawn, so this way I can save Eddie the trouble.

I recommend saying NO to the bunnies. Sure they look so cute and cuddly, but that are a pain to maintain. We had one as kids and we despised it because we had to clean the cage which was an awful chore. And so smelly.
