my week in objects (mostly).

June 21, 2019

1. this stash of soap.

soap | reading my tea leaves

{for smelling so good and getting here so fast.}

2. this big broom (and the little one).

{for quick (and frequent) sand sweeps.}

3. this drying rack.

{for being a spot to dry rain-drenched socks and other things.}

4. this pile of sticks.

{and the person who brought them here.}

5. this fan.

{because so far so good on no A/C.}

other things:

missing out.

maybe joy, if that’s the word, has nothing to do with knowing.

the kind of suspicion that answers to nothing.

the middle ground is racist ground.

also.

yentl syndrome.

apocalypse now.

twenty percent off, if you need it.

i don’t care if you recycle (more via the ever-brilliant nikita). depressingly, related.

    This post is one I look forward to every week. Even though I live a completely different life across the pond I always find something to relate to.

    Ah yes, nothing says social media influencer like a $200-350 broom. *eye roll*.

    How do you deal with environmental panic? I feel such dread every day now – staying awake at night worrying that my children are going to die terrible, climate-related deaths, or that I won’t get to have grandchildren, won’t get to introduce them to the beauty of their earth. How do you handle that worry in your own life and parenting?

      More to tackle here than I could put into a comment, but I try my best to stay hopeful and pro-active!

      We got it a few years ago at a hardware store! No brand name!

    There’s nothing I love more than some handmade soap. Looks like I have new brand to try, thanks for sharing! 😉
