Division of labor in the marriage: I wake up early and he goes to sleep late, so he picks the dinner recipe (and sets some ingredients out for me) and in the morning I prepare the crock pot and set the timer so there's dinner when we both get home from work. #marriage #crockpotdinner #butalsoletsseehowlongthislevelofplanninglasts https://www.instagram.com/p/BqE_cFrBb2nWiAokm8bJz64TKqXAY1lHSQ2FIM0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=hjq7kkbsigof

I just want people to know that if your thank you card looks a little wonky, it's because the cat wouldn't allow me exclusive use of my own lap to write them. We compromised. #catdesk https://www.instagram.com/p/BpXV8GvhSuofxLVtrCx82hOJO3qS-fROqcIycg0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=zwqpboy052pv

Playing hooky from a football game because my man proposed the Greek Festival, and a Greek food date with meat on sticks and stuffed grape leaves and feta and olives and spanikopita and hummus and so much more...

Guinness went with me to a friend's house and had a grant tine chilling and being scratched. We went out, and there was a bunny. Guinness went for a full-tilt chase of the bun, and suddenly the ground was gone because she had run directly into the pook. (Animals are not allowed in the pool for fear of puncturing the liner.) And now she's all wet and had new experiences. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnph7gWjyP2S8FDpEdaov8vYwGQeSxqARMMxZw0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ll4r7th6byc7

By our powers combined, we turn from five droopy chair pieces of a sectional sofa to a sort of lounge nest bed for company! (ideally not for two tall people) #hurricaneflorence https://www.instagram.com/p/BnmWFw5hOrp8J0kltgXkfjOtzd1vGqNhvPWadM0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1hfhn9gp0rsnh

Enjoying her solo lap time until family comes into town with dogs and she exiles herself to behind the washing machine. #hurricaneflorence https://www.instagram.com/p/Bnj6PdrjbL_wnSw2-qT8euRufPb-3qhypnWV_Q0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=pwgjantspsgh

When we were talking about engagement pictures this weekend, I asked Ethan if I should arrange to get my makeup done at a makeup counter. He said "But it looks so good when you do it yourself" and the man is not wrong. #engagementpictures #myface https://www.instagram.com/p/BnPMomSDyl9hzhSnU-BI09nagqLpAXo3Mrx3Fk0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2orkyzzam7zs

My students didn't think my tardy meme is as funny as I know it is. It's lonely being the funniest person in the room. #teachingprobs https://www.instagram.com/p/BnHy2pDjVRU5x2DpE7UklL_RPokpwn6aCgaxoI0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8gf82yvrikqy

Runnin' around at school gettin' frizzy. #Bengalsnolongeronbreak

Cats might pretend they're cool and independent, but this loser waits outside the bathroom for me like she has nothing better to do. #catsofinstagram #itskitty

My light isn't great right now, but can we appreciate how gorgeous these nails are? At my nail tech's suggestion, these are dip nails which really strengthened my nails (which is important because they're bendy when they get long, and I've got some typing coming up with a new school year). #smallluxuries

Ethan's purging his wardrobe and kitty needed to investigate. #tabbycat #catsofinstagram
