for kerri

i have been told by my dear cousin that i don't blog often enough. the first excuse that came to mind was that, unlike most of the blogs i follow, i don't have adorable children to post photos and stories of their cute antics of them hiding in cupboards or on easter egg hunts or getting covered in food as they try to feed themselves or videos of them giggling, etc. i have trouble talking about my job while keeping my patients anonymous, so i often don't blog about work at all. and then when i do, i realize that it's usually not about the positive things. sorry - i will try to change that.

later on today, while i painted the last 3 closets left to paint in our house (there are officially NO white walls in the house anymore!) , i was thinking about what to blog about, and i thought i could take pictures of myself hiding in a cupboard or some such thing. but then i remembered that i'm a grown woman and that would be a little immature, even as a joke. must think of something else....

not too long later, i found myself tucked away under the bottom shelf of my pantry as i sanded the primed walls, in prep for painting....
