MY CHILDREN ARE FREAKS
You’d never guess it by the picture-perfect photos that I usually post (hahaha!) or the ones that Tracey has just posted, but my children are FREAKS OF NATURE. I could get them on Stupid Human Tricks! My sister can turn her arms all the way around and inside out with her palms flat on the table, and I used to be able to vibrate my eyes (now it gives me a monster headache), but I don’t know where my kids got their freaky freakishness. The apple may not fall very far from the tree in most cases, but this time...

BOUNCING BACK TO BITE ME
I’m ashamed to tell you where the camera was. We looked around outside this morning and reaffimed that it was nowhere on the deck, in the yard or in the garage. Karin reiterated that she had left it out on the porch table and not taken it anywhere else. We talked at the breakfast table about the 3 friends who were here in the afternoon and whether or not any of them might have taken it to play with or moved it and Martin and Karin were asked to ask them nicely if they remembered having seen it. I worked...

PITY PARTY FOR 1
We had a power outage yesterday evening while we were gone, and I set the clock right before I went to bed at 11:30…only I set it wrong and when the alarm went off at 7 a.m. this morning and I hit the snooze thinking I could doze another 5 minutes, Anders said to me, “Liz, it’s 8 o’clock, what are you doing?” And I screamed and leaped and swore bad words and raced around like a chicken with my head cut off, and then I went to work. And I worked really damn hard and I didn’t leave until...

CRAFTY CORNER
Ta-dah! I finally finished putting together my new art table and everything looks so organized! I’m motivated just looking at it! Sometimes I wonder if I’m a bit TOO organized, and suspect that organization kills creativity in many subtle ways, but when it makes me so happy how can I not give in?

EXCUSES FOR PROCRASTINATION, PART THE FIRST
I had all the photos from Germany picked out and lined up in Paintshop to edit this afternoon and then we got a summer thunderstorm that raced in and blew up things, including our electricity, downpoured like a mother for 15 minutes, setting off our car alarm, and then disappeared as quickly as it had arrived. Later, we had rain WITH sunshine. Sweden. If you don’t like the weather, just wait 5 minutes. Upshot: reboot, all photos have to be opened and chosen again. Tomorrow, perhaps. Instead, I give you the following…
