Friday 5: Gang aft agley
Happy Friday, which is National Coffee Day, National Gay Men's HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, and National VFW Day. (A VFW is a great place to get a cheap beer, if you know someone who can get you in.) I don't make liking coffee my entire personality, but I've really stepped up my coffee game this year. Making my own cold brew concentrate and vanilla sweet cream at home amped my enjoyment tenfold. The downside of all of that is that I'm back to 2 hot cups a day now; just both in the morning ...

When I went to find them, instead of going back to Pinterest (to be honest I forgot I had pinned them) I searched Google for "clay ghosts" instead of "ceramic ghosts" (it's been a very scattered September) and one of the top results was a link to a tutorial on Why Don't You Make Me on how to make some yourself.

Happy Friday, friends! It's also National Ice Cream Cone Day, Car Free Day (I take public transit at every opportunity, but I also think the car free movement can be unrealistic) and American Business Woman's Day. I'm observing that day by being off from work today and Monday to burn off the last of the PTO I can't carry over to TNP's next fiscal year, which starts October 1. It's supposed to rain tomorrow, Sunday, and Monday. So today I made sure to get the outdoor chores finished. I mowed ...
