just another day

my nephew got a dog today. her name is zoe. she is a cute little dog and so sweet. grant was so excited about getting her and couldn't wait to share her with everyone.

fireplace

my husband says that i'm a pyromaniac. my response: just because i like to play with fire doesn't mean that i am a pyromaniac. wikipedia defines pyromania as an impulse to deliberately start fires to relieve tension and typically includes relief afterward.
fire is entirely fascinating. from the red hot coals to the jumping flames, i'm dumbfounded by its traits. i enjoy fires enough to chop my own wood this evening. i only got through one and a half logs and my arm is already sore. i must say that i was worth it though so that i could make a fire.
