This could really be a good life, a good, good life

So, yesterday morning, I had stayed home from the office to get some administrative work and some staff gift-making done free from office distractions. At some point, I looked around and thought “this is basically our day to day life personified” so I documented the moment, for your viewing pleasure.

Here is Dan, attaching baskets to the back of the bike he ‘acquired’ after it was abandoned in front of our apartment for 48 hours. He is super excited about the baskets because now he can take quick trips to the farmer’s market or the grocery store and bring everything back on his bike.

While this isn’t a picture of me working, this is what I did yesterday morning. I found this idea on Pinterest, and it’s a Martha Stewart tutorial. But, these are super easy and I looooooove the way they turned out. I think they are adorable. Anyway, I made one for each of my staff members for Halloween. It’s a good bet that if I’m taking the time to do something crafty, it’s for my staff. It’s not happening otherwise.

And here’s Lily, sticking her head in things that it shouldn’t be in. This time it was a plastic bag that bike basket parts were in.

Last, James. Eating. If he’s not eating, he’s sitting next to his bowl so he can monitor the bowl, in case anyone goes to touch it. Or he’s next to the container of dry food so he can rub up against it anytime one of us walks by.

“please tell me
What there is to complain about?”
