Thursday Thoughts - I was nowhere in sight when the church bells rang

Opting out of the ol' morning scroll. My alarm goes on my phone, then the only thing I use it for at least an hour after getting up on the weekdays is taking photos or the timer. My days go so much better. If you are an immediate scroller or consumer of social media or news, try switching that up and see what happens. Mug from HelloLemonZesty.

Signing up for a CSA share delivery this summer through Flocktown Farm. $2 delivery to Bucks.

Pulling over for glimpses of sunsets. Always. This is outside of my high school on the way home from my brother & Aubrey's.

Limping along with a battery deficiency this week. I drove back from the shore Tuesday night with no phone charger. Not a damn one in this Philly house. I used my car charger a little while running errands and also used my brother's yesterday. 

Playing Ghost Busters with my nephew using other toys. Imagination is awesome.

Asking if you have your sunscreen on daily. May is Skin Cancer Awareness Month and skin cancer is America's most common cancer. Fortunately it is also one of the most preventable. 

Picturing Winnie using portrait mode

Spending a few days of fam time with Mark, Sarah, and Harry earlier this week

Searching for curtains for tiny windows. Like 18 inches but not a valance. 

Picking new paint colors because the goddamn paint I picked does not work for fiberglass doors. 

Asking what's my age again. 

Cleaning up after dogs. This shattered lantern from our wedding was fun as it was the same color as the floor. I spared you the two...TWO poop incidents of Gus's that involved middle of the night sheet changing.

Wishing you all a Happy Mother's Day, in whatever capacity you are one

Hugging anyone who finds Mother's Day hard for any reason - because yours isn't here, or you don't have a good relationship, or you want to be a mom but aren't, or you are struggling as a Mom, or you've lost a child, or any of the big or small things that might make the day hard

Watching nothing but I'm about to get into Mare of East Town or whatever it's called. Gimme that Kate Winslet Delco accent.

Reading the newest Jennifer Weiner coming out May 11, and starting something new TBD today. I've been reading almost exclusively on my kindle due to plowing through a bunch of advanced reader copies from Netgalley, so I'm about ready to hold a book. Show Us Your Books is Tuesday!

What's new with you?

What appears beyond the hyphen in Thursday Thoughts titles is what I'm listening to when I'm starting this - this week is Ride Like the Wind by Christopher Cross
