Adrian and I carry our iced coffees and joint-making supplies down the white hallway lit by morning sun. He opens the metal screen door to the front porch for me. I hate this door. It is like a spring-loaded clamshell that wants to be shut at all times. I quickly move through the open door like I’m in an immunity challenge on
Somehow maneuvering like I am on a Survivor immunity challenge is an almost daily occurrence. I died at that line, and it just got better. Monarch butterflies are a good sign. xx
Did the fog work on the mosquitoes? We did that with very low expectations but it worked really well and we live in a wooded area where mosquitoes typically ruin the summer.
I bought big, puffy 70’s style headphones so strangers will stop talking to me on dog walks. It didn’t work. I find myself lying to the strangers a lot during these interactions. I wondered why and decided I feel like they are taking something from me making me engage when I don’t want to so I won’t give them any me. I pretend I’m a woman who says stupid shit like my husband won’t let me cut my dog’s hair even though I’m happily divorced and have always done as I please. I love this post and it makes me happy Adrian isn’t like us so he got rid of the mosquitos.
First Comment! Sadly this is happening everyday to us in TN. Doorbell rings and there is a very happy person that wants to talk to us about bugs in TN.
Soooooooo
Many more bugs here than in LA. So they talk way longer and it’s hard to stop them because they seem so happy to talk about the Bugs!
We oblige and try to stop the conversation but often they end up telling us all about their lives and sometimes struggles. It becomes a therapy session for all of us!
Btw you and Adrian are a Beautiful couple inside Ian’s out! Keep in spreading the ❤️
It really is annoying when boyfriends engage.
i love reading you
