Random Thoughts...

I have to mow the lawn today. And by "the lawn", I really do mean the grass, or in my case the weeds. It's been so dry here that the grass quit growing a month or so ago, but I have healthy green weeds up to my knees and now they're starting to grow up the middle of the driveway so they whack the bottom of the car when you drive over them. It kind of makes you feel like some kind of explorer discovering new land (In a 97' ford escort filled with junk mail, half empty bottles of water and burger wraps covered in ketchup) not reality show worthy, but still a little adventurous.

I wish I could mow in my caftan, I mean there's nothing really stopping me from mowing in my muumuu other than the disapproving looks of the neighbors, and the fact that I really don't want to add to my description of "weird woman that runs the park with all the frickin animals who never mows her lawn" to all that and then with "in a muumuu" thrown on top. And just in case you're wondering, this is only my around the house look and I wear it with a complimenting headband. It's not a very glamorous look, but too much color is never a bad thing.

Here's the link on Amazon if you want one for yourself. I think it was like twelve dollars or something ridiculous like that, and if you have Prime you can barely afford not to get one. Or two. Maybe I'll buy another one. I'll have indoor and outdoor muumuus. I have never worn my dress to town or even outside -yet- so five two might be nice.

What was I talking about... Oh, the lawn. I need to go mow. I think I'll just let the sheep out instead.

Did you see Bruce Caitlyn Jenner at the ESPYS last night?

Great hair. Man hands.

I have a chicken sitting on eggs in the garage. This may pose a problem at some point, not to mention the fact that it's just bad form to have chickens roosting in your garage.

Do you put corn in your vegetable soup? I don't, but I'm thinking maybe I should... All the recipes I see have corn and I'm really feeling like I'm missing out on something, like I missed some corn memo, and since I've never put corn in my soup before, now I'm almost afraid that if I do put corn in and like it that then I'll be upset that all these years I never used corn. 

The corn struggle is real.

I also feel like it's wrong to make hot soup during summer.

And if you have vegetable soup is a salad overkill?
