Life Lately

September 17, 2018

She woke up and decided today was going to be a “rock star day.” ?

 

Drinking and axe throwing. What could go wrong??

 

 

Just watching Saturday morning Rage Against the Machine videos with the kids, as one does, and noticed this TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT sign. Some 20 years ago. Woahhhh.

 

Okay friends. I need to pick a backsplash for my kitchen. I’m torn between a geometric black and white, or adding a splash of blue. Scroll through and tell me which one you think would look best … (oh and the yellow chairs are going away – going with simple white chairs)

I went to the ENT today and had this apparatus used on me, which looked like a torture device from 1958. Prognosis: enlarged turbinates. Has anyone else dealt with this before? Tell me everything. I’ve been living with compacted sinuses and post-nasal drip pretty much constantly and I’m over it. Today he shot a syringe of steroid into both sides (fun!) but mentioned a balloon technique if that doesn’t work. Self care: not all massages and pedicures.

These are my “get shit done” overalls. I wear them most weekends when working on the house. India decided she needed some as well. She sewed the patches on herself. Today’s project: ripping the flooring out of the Backhouse and cleaning out the garage.

 

A little retrospective of the Howerton kids through the years (swipe left). Sunrise sunset and all that. ?

Back-to-school means new beginnings. It’s a fresh start with limitless possibilities.

A surge of freedom and ideas and goals. I guess it’s cool for the kids, too.

 

 

I’m sorry did you want to see photos of my cute kids on their first day of school because I just have these ones of me jumping a lot …
