A stink bug inside Cole's car.

Say hello to my new non-friend. It's a stink bug. The only good news about this buggy enemy is that he won't hurt me. He will just stink if I smash him. Turns out, a few years ago, they invaded the area. I don't think that is the case this year, but I still dislike them.

The other day, we took Cole's car to the store. When I opened the door, some flew at me. Then I sat down in the seat, shut the door and screamed because more fell on me. Their clingy legs and ability to soar off freaks me out. So, after Cole swiped a bunch away, we drove off. But, now I keep finding them in the house. Because I don't really deal well with them, I trap them in a cup until Cole can come save me. So if you are to visit, you might find a cup sitting upside down on the floor for some unknown reason. Well, now you know.

On to a happier, less scary note. Sunday is my Grammie's birthday. To celebrate, I sent her a package including a book from a Virginia author, and crimped onto the top, a little, heart bookmark I made from a Pinterest idea. This craft looks simple because it is. Even for those without my Origami (that is another story for another blog) skills should have no trouble making this bookmark.

Went to the store in search of a book, and this one seemed perfect.

She loves reading and hearts, so I think she will like it.

Happy Friday, and happy birthday, Grammie!
