Starry Night

Puzzles.

What not to do when picking out a puzzle for a fun stay at home date night:

Don't pick one if...

1. It has 2000 pieces.
2. It has several different variations of dark blue, light blue, blue, blue purple, blueish gray...shall I go on?
3. If you will need card table, dinning room table, and kitchen island in order to fit all of the pieces.
4. If you are expecting company and if it is a holiday.

What to expect if you do:

1. You are missing one piece to connect the outer part.
2. Your dog will sneak and eat the pieces. And that is probably where your missing piece went.
3. A lot of cussing about why they are all blue.
4. Eating dinner on the couch.
5. No happy ending...



Currently, over this puzzle.

Earthquake

Last night we felt a 5.6 earthquake. We had a smaller one the night before, but we were asleep. This must be on every geologist bucket list--experience an earthquake, right? Brian was excited. For the 30 seconds, Brian and I stared at each other, I regret not taking a picture of the smile and excitement on his face. priceless.
