if you don't try

As I've mentioned before, I like to set lofty (perhaps unattainable) goals, and naturally, I've made a list. I love lists.

1. obtain green thumb
2. use pesky spot of yard intended for composting...for composting (see number 1)
3. plant herb garden (see number 1)
4. brew beer and make wine
5. make kombucha
6. experimental cooking (not as frightening as it sounds)
7. crochet
8. learn sign language for my students
9. make bath products
10. whistle with my fingers
11. take pictures

Any tips are greatly appreciated.

And yes, it bothers me that there are 11 things on this list.

Abby Carlisle

Meet Abby!

I'm going to go ahead and blame her for keeping me from this blog. Really! Truly! It's all her fault!


This is Abby's belief system:

1. Trash was never intended to be in a bag.

2. Beds aren't made for sleeping. It's the perfect place to catch your human off guard and attack them with licks.

3. You may eat dirt. Be sure to bring the dirt inside the house first.

4. Christmas trees look prettier on the ground.

5. As long as you look cute, you may get away with anything.

We love her. We really, really love her.
