I used to listen to this song by The Weepies called Simple Life. I would listen to it as I drove down 95 miles down two interstates to a highly stressful job.

Now my life is totally different. There are a new set of stresses (like being charged with feeding, clothing and cleaning a very small person) but it's better. Way better. And simple. But in a good way.

A couple weeks ago Jason was kind enough to throw this thing together for me using wood we got for free!

Beardface used two 6 foot board and two 4 foot boards.

He nailed the boards together at the edges and then filled them with 6 bags of soil. It took 20 minutes! That's it 20 minutes!!!
