I came across this cute little duck when I was cleaning out and packing up the basement. It almost went into the "Give away" box. But then I noticed its number, which was going to be my new apartment number, and it felt like a sign that everything was supposed to be happening the way it was, so I kept it as a reminder. It's also the inverse of "42," which held many signs of hope for me during the hardest years of my life. Things are working out the way they should.
Mission pics from John!
This guy looks like a model.
Books I saw at the library that I want to read:
On Cinco de Mayo, Vera, Anna, Christine, and I met for lunch at Santa Fe Burrito Grill, which was one of our sons' favorite places to eat together. Our sons are best friends and are all on their missions together right now.
I discovered that avocado toast is super easy to make, and my personal healthy nutrition level just improved by at least 10%.
Every few years I have to replace my exercise shoes. It was time to do so in May. Here are my nice new pretty ones!
I overlooked this picture when I was putting together my "Around the House" post for this month, so it gets a spot here. I got this special cup on a Disney cruise when the live-action Beauty and the Beast was coming out. It's supposed to be like the rose that the beast kept in the glass container in his room. The top of the cup lights up, and for years I used it as my drinking cup when I took my jacuzzi baths. Those days are gone, and it was time to bid it a fond farewell. (And it doesn't light up anymore.)
I still take hair selfies sometimes:
Sam, David, and I went to see the new Mission Impossible movie the day it came out. It was good!
One of John's Facebook Stories. I take screenshots of them whenever I see them.
My mom and I went out to see Nate and Kat on Memorial Day, and we had a delicious breakfast of crepes and herbal tea at a crepe house near them.
A cute book I saw when working in the Children's Room at the library:
And a horrifying one. This was a new board book for the baby/toddler books section. This is very disturbing and morally unsound. This is not even scientifically and biologically true. I'm totally disgusted by this.
One of John's food pics. The guy loves food and eating out!
