    • Eating grits and butter.
    • With Old Sport at GYC. cc: @nbolesmd
    • Aww:) They didn't forget! It is a happy Mother's Day!
    • I found this in my 3 yr old's backpack. I said what's this for? He said it's for you. Still no Happy Mother's Day.
    • Heading out to the cinema. #gatsby
    • I got 2 journals in the mail today! Yipeeeeee! #grey
    • Ah a time before Amazon. Mail orders forms in the back of old books make me nostalgic.
    • This is how I labeled my books when I was little. #Gatsby
    • Starting a re-read of The Great Gatsby on one of my older copies before I see the movie this week. Is anyone hosting a read along?
    • E.L. James on an escalator. "Stars" they're just like us.
    • Coming Soon: The Amazing Spider-Man Takes A Nap
    • It's 2:30 in the morn, can't sleep, wearing a Spin Drs hat, and Yoda's in my ear. Something's gotta give.
    • Engrossed in his favorite show: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. #Disney
    • My backyard is green and huge. This summer I plan on doing a series of yard beautification DIY posts on Mandibles. I'm thinking rose garden, fire pit, fruit trees, and maybe a gazebo.
    • British has a stomach virus. However he dressed up in this stripey pants outfit & is currently running in circles around the yard. Please come in and eat saltines & drink sprite! *heads to grab a little man*
    • A family of 5 effing huge raccoons are in my backyard right now. This is a terrible picture but my good camera is not charged. I'm too scared to get close enough for a good picture.
    • Morning coffee and a pretty view.
    • Sitting on the back porch staring at the bay.
    • Just started reading a new book: Carry On,Warrior: Thoughts On Life Unarmed by Glennon Doyle Melton #amreading
