It is shopping time

Today was suppose to be all about building the garden of giants, a little 2'x8' area that is going to house the seedlings for our giant pumpkins and watermelons. It was the day I was going to set my deer / raccoon sprinkler in motion. Today was going to be my gardening day from sun up to sun down; however, the weather had other plans. I know I could have been outside since it wasn't actually raining and I AM a true PNW'er now (after 14 years) with my collection of jackets for every weather scenario.

I opted to stay in. I opted to take a long, hot shower all by myself. I opted to hold my little sack of sugar while she napped. Sorry garden, tomorrow is another day. My dedicated other half spent yesterday making sure you were ready for me, but today I opted to stay inside with my babes.

AND...while the babes took their afternoon nap, I set up a little store on Amazon. The books I have mentioned on here are linked into the "Mental Chew Store". So, if you also find yourself tucked inside with a babe sleeping in your arms and you need a good read to download or flip through, I have a pretty good list started. Enjoy!

  1. The summers where our babes were the youngest were always the hardest to garden. It doesn't make much sense, but cherish the times where you sit and hold a sleeping wee one. Good job on showering all by yourself. That always feels like a gold star moment for me.
    P.S. Love the book store!
