Just a little crazy

During the move much of our things ended up in some storage units.  One of them got emptied today.  The unit I have had since I moved three years ago has a little less in it too.  We had hoped to go hiking this afternoon but the storage unit wore us out.  There is more furniture for this big house now though.

At some point the battery died in my Fitbit so I lost all the steps from most of the day.  I've been wanting to replace my Fitbit Zip but there are certain things I like about it.  I hate to say it, but one of those things is the replaceable battery.  Rechargeable would be better for the environment, but they only stay charged for five to seven days.  What I need to do is let go of the idea that I need to count my steps if I go backpacking for more than a week.  

My happy for today is being crazy and laughing, pretty much uncontrollably, for a bit.  We went to the Dollar Store and bought a bunch of pinwheels.  The pinwheels are supposed to keep some animals out of the garden. Anyhow, K and Z were in the front of the van and I was in the back.  I decided to act like a bratty three year old.  I ran the gambit of emotions playing with the pinwheels.  From sad and crying over them not spinning, to mad that the colors weren't exactly what I wanted to the elation when they spun in the wind.  It was rather cathartic.  When one of the made a noise in the wind I even blew raspberries as an attempt to mimic the sound.  Times are crazy right now, and Gideon was at home, so it was a good time for me to be a little crazy too.

One of the tomatoes that didn't get eaten yet has lots of little buds!

I think today is the first time Gideon has been in the car
to go away from the property since we moved in April.




Stay safe and sane.
