“No more pencils, no more books.”

Well, happy Wednesday. The Legislative session is over and the Capitol has returned to its sleepy state. Life has a very school’s out for the summer vibe. The two dudes at the top of the office food chain both independently scheduled the exact same vacation that begins today. So, let’s just say, I am not complaining.

Of course, I have plenty of big projects that need starting/wrapping up–so hopefully I can get some serious work done in the ensuing quiet (God willing) days.
I spent today working on some talking points that I thought were for an event speaking to a Boy Scout Troop. I put in some extra effort on them because I thought I could re-purpose them other future events with kids. When I sent them to the bossman, I was informed that the audience was, in fact, not a a group of children, but a group of adults attending a fundraiser for said scout troop. [insert face palm emoji]. A co-worker was like, “what if he hadn’t read them and got up in front of adults with remarks for a group of kids!”
At least the bossman liked my joke about green shorts.
Anyway, in other news, my mother reminded me that I forgot to mention last week that when Lottie came over she excitedly handed me this donut pillow. After spotting it at Target, she apparently told her mother, “Aunt Mary likes donuts!!” I was touched.

And I think it looks just perfect next to my Jonathan Adler pagoda pillow, don’t you?


I love this. The capitol peonies are lovely too. The two side-by-side pillows say it all.
I kind of wish he had delivered the kid speech to the parents!
The boy scouts story is too funny!! Love your pillows ๐
