Just What I Needed

 Heat watch day two.
Same as yesterday, and again, no orange sticker,
So Minnie and I walked home, and then I pushed her
around the garden to check our pumpkins.
I got them planted late, so they are still pretty small,
which is too bad since they will most likely be ready for
Thanksgiving, not Halloween.

Minnie is obsessed with pumpkins.  She does the backward wave
every time she sees one.  It's seriously the cutest thing I've ever seen.
And then this afternoon, Minnie took one of the best naps
 she's ever taken in my arms while I was on the couch.  I was nap-trapped.
But it actually was really nice.
Last night, Christian and I started a movie around 11:00 pm. for some reason.
We didn't go to bed until after 1:00.
Sometimes we do this.
I don't know why, but I don't regret it.
I was just super tired today, so this excuse to sit down and hold
Minnie as she napped while I sat with her was just what I needed.
I admired my cute little house and the gorgeous view outside my
window. This October may be hot, but it's so beautiful out.
I feel so lucky to be living here!
