This weekend I...

...took no pictures, even though I initially promised myself I would.

...did not turn on my computer at all.

...let my phone die and didn't answer texts. I checked Instagram once.

...attempted to organize some parts of the Wyoming house and made a master list of what I need to take with me next time (when I go there over my spring break). Had only two crying fits when I considered how much work is ahead of me when it comes to setting up a new house the way I'd like it.

...watched almost two full seasons of The Last Man on Earth. It's such a better version of an apocalyptic virus than The Walking Dead, in my opinion.

...tried three new-to-me restaurants. I'd go back to all of them. A diner, a vegan cafe, and an ice cream place.

....took a few windy walks with the dogs.

....also tried out Scott's new truck. He traded in the Tacoma that we loved dearly for a Ford Super Duty something-or-other. It'll come in handy as we start moving things to Wyoming.

....had to leave the dogs in Wyoming with Scott (I had wanted to bring them back with me since I have a 4-day week) because the fire danger in this God-forsaken state is so high that I don't feel right leaving them alone and worrying about them all day while I'm at work.

....finished an audiobook I initially started in October-ish, and realized I really enjoyed the second half of it. I Found You by Lisa Jewell.

...saw this article posted on Facebook last night. It happened at my old high school this past week, and we actually had a similar situation at my elementary school here in Colorado this past week too. I have a very strong opinion that, juvenile or not...10 years old or high school...your name should be published and your parents' names should be published and you should be able to be publicly shamed when you do something like that. The public has a right to know when you're stupid and reckless.

Anyway..that's a depressing way to end a list, right?

Here's some motivation for Monday...

I've always been meaning to read more C.S. Lewis.


The Bachelor ATFR is going to blow up tonight AND I have tomorrow off AND I have a work day on Friday with no students. All good things.
