It's been 5 days since I updated? Really?

Well, more of the same. Made mustard. Cookies. Followed the baby around, preventing her from falling down stairs and eating cat hair.

Tomorrow, we go to Memphis.

My friend may talk her former advisor, a turtle biologist, into taking the turtles. That would be a highly welcome turn of events.

Lesson for life: sometimes things you thought you wanted can be surprisingly difficult to get rid of. And things you didn't know you wanted, you definitely want to keep. And stuff you threw out last week you'll probably need next month. At least you will if they are potential art supplies. Never throw out potential art supplies. (corrolary: everything is a potential art supply.)
