Now I Lay Me Down to Rest*
The Hubs and I went to spend the weekend with his parents for Father’s Day, and while we were there we all went out on a trip to the GTA to see some of his extended family.

They each tend to have a pretty sarcastic sense of humour and whatnot. Anyway, while I was sitting on the couch listening to the various conversations going on around me, I began listening to my mother-in-law’s conversation with her father about arrangements he’s made for his funeral…

I am Shop Girl–a life (and shoe) loving 24 year old teacher fresh out of teacher’s college who has not eaten chocolate in nearly a year (CRAZY, right??).
