Sitting here breathing in the trees and mid morning sun. A squirrel is on a branch several meters away just absolutely going OFF. I feel you, squirrel. I see you, hear you and feel you.

The mental health benefits of not knowing any history right now must be massive. Moving through your day with total equanimity. What happens next? Who knows? Maybe something good

Last year we sold 5x more advent calendars than we have this August. Advent calendars are the biggest thing that keep the lights on at Skype a Scientist so this makes me a bit nervous!
These calendars are bright and cute and are full of really fun information about eels!

Last night at a dream come true event for my youngest (MCR concert), my oldest took off his shoes for the whole show so my youngest could stand on them and have another inch or two of height to see better. My mama heart nearly exploded.
