It's that time of the week again. Sometimes, when I look back at the week in pictures (182 to choose from this time), my life seems incredibly boring. hikes, dogs, cooking, hikes, dogs...And yet, my Friday post is fun even while I left off my hike, Bennett Gap trail in the Pisgah Nat'l forest - which really, sums up my life here. I WANTED this. I worked for this. I just have to keep getting outside and trying to be more social.

I was guilted/cajoled into shipping cookies southward.
(to be fair, it was owed/overdue and EC was right in calling in the cookie favor)
So I went for an entirely Caker Cookbook menu of Mama Peplinski's Pecan Mini-Muffins (seen below),
Grandma Lois' Brownies, Oato-Choc-Toffee cookies (the big hit)...and rice krispies. mmm.

I had shown this before, with a peeking bird...I opened up the front of
the lantern in the hopes that the bird would nest. And it did...laid eggs
and one or two hatched, and a cat came around, and between the cat and my photos,
i think the bird abandoned the nest. bummer.

Today was really all about debt. House debt. Reorganizing house debt.
So step one was refinancing the 'here house' and the next step is to
refinance the 'there house' and then...maybe...someday...selling the fucker.

ha-ha.

CIRCUS at Warren Wilson College.
Kind of like an end-of-year talent show with no boundaries.
Creative, costumed, freak-themed...below is a giraffe. And the band rocked.

Additional shots for those that are interested...OGRE! Host/aged circus ringleader, old-time dance routine, and a very hazy shot of the amazing acrobatics. [yes, juniperjupiter clearly should have attended WWC...not only do they have a creative writing degree, but they seem to be gender-neutral, freak-loving, costume-loving, AND there are clubs devoted to acrobatics.

Dog Groomer day - yes, our dogs go to what can technically be called a salon,
for nail trimming. because it IS easier...on us and them. The muzzles have been
deemed necessary. They always enter in panic mode and come out like it was no big deal.
