I open (simultaneously) gmail, my rss reader, facebook, and the weather. Whichever loads first gets my attention first.

Take it, for sure. I always feel like I'm making a stupid face when there's a camera aimed at me.

i haven't had any jobs that were awful in themselves, but i had a boss who made me dread that monday was coming as I left work on Friday afternoon. Great job, though. I might still be there if she hadn't been totally batshitcrazy.

Coupling. the British version. There were some fall-of-the-couch moments, for sure.

Really schmarmy crooner versions of songs that were not written by crooners. Example: Sinatra doing Mrs. Robinson. I'm not making that up.

Being able to be truly lazy now and then. Children require your A-game all the time.

The brick orange ones came from my stepfather (i'm not sure whom he bought them from.) The green ones are from....somewhere. The white ones are from target. They're a little small, but they do the job. I'd like to start making my own when these wear out. Etsy is actually pretty overwhelming to me unless someone shows me what I'm looking for. One thing you can't compromise on with cloth napkins: 100% cotton or linen. Nothing else will absorb nearly as well (if at all!)
confession: if it's just me I've been known to use a prefold for a napkin now that they've graduated from diaper to burp rag status. -
Imbalance. When your life and environment are balanced, natural harmony follows.

I am waiting for a new type of insert to arrive in the mail and then I do have plans for an update. Quickly, though, I love our fuzzibunz, still. The grobaby (now called grovia) are too short in the rise for our long, skinny boy, so they've been retired. I've replaced them with Thirsties Duo covers (the inserts that I'm waiting on) and am also using Thirsties Fab Fitted inserts. I have a couple of Bum Genius All-In-Ones, but I'm not a huge fan because the fit is weird. But that could be because our little guy is long and skinny. The grobaby/grovia disposable inserts work with the Thirsties shells and are still the only 'sposie insert I recommend. It's not necessary to use the tape to keep them in place, but that might change as Bunny gets more mobile. When the new inserts arrive I will post a blog with pictures and more in-depth reviews.

Maude Genevieve after my great grandmother and Steve's grandmother, respectively.

Thunderstorms. there's nothing like a good summer storm to liven up otherwise lazy days.

I think I would bring back some of the rules: like no hats indoors. But first, I guess, we'd all have to start regularly wearing hats again!

I have a suribachi bowl that I'm dying to use. And I'm currently on the hunt for a good blender. If our peach crop turns out well (we have three trees) then in a month or so it will be all peaches all the time!

Currently? I either want to die on House or be scandalous on Mad Men.
