Hello!

I've been in stalker mode lately and even though I've loved reading about your treasures I've missed "talking" to you guys. Not that I have that much to tell you. 🤷‍♀️ Although I did just start a new treatment plan so I'm trying to be cautiously optimistic about seeing some health improvements in the not too distant future. Fingers crossed.

🐝 My oldest nephew has been away working, first in LA for a month then several weeks in Paris, on a secret project he couldn't tell anyone about. Well, yesterday I found out he's been doing video programming for Beyoncé! It simultaneously blew my mind and didn't surprise me at all, the kid is super talented. If you're going to see her on tour, let me know if he did good. 😉

🌺 My parents are kindly letting me commandeer part of their garden this summer and I'm trying to plan what I want to grow. I have a few ideas and I hope this will be a fun summer project (and maybe even good for my mental health).

Have a lovely weekend, friends!

Good morning Swipes! I am sitting on my back deck, coffee and book in hand, listening to the very loud bird song. I downloaded the Merlín app this week (influenced by The Lazy Genius) and love using it to figure out what songs I am hearing. There is also a feature where you can take a picture of a bird to identify it, but that’s not going to happen because as much as I love watching them from afar, ain’t no way I am getting up close enough to snap a pic #birdfear

Speaking of influenced, thank-you, Erin, for posting about the AE oversized shirt being on sale. I’m going to purchase the bright green one for my Mother’s Day gift to myself! Anybody else have summer clothes they love? I am at a weird in-between sized stage and need to get a couple good fitting shorts/capri/shirts.

Rapid Treasures:

📖 Following Jesus in a Warming World: A Christian Call to Climate Action by Kyle Meyaard-Schaap

😏 Planning a Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom surprise for my three big boys with my husband

🏷️ Garage sale hopping tomorrow with just one kid (so much easier)

🏍️ Watching my boys learn how to ride dirt bikes - so much joy!

🥞 Breakfast for dinner with good friends last night, planned and made by my 6, 8, and 10 year old (6 year old planned the whole menu!).

It’s starting to feel like summer here, so we are milking the evenings for all their worth. Love you all. Have the best weekend available to you!
