"I love the deer, I love the woods, and I love that I can still get to a Target in five minutes." yes friend, same same same!! We live in a lot of similar places, the kitchen, the grocery story (I actually know I don't like living there, lol), the CAR, books. "I'm running to something" ugh, I love what you wrote about living in books! Thank you for this prompt, and thank you for sharing your beautiful words about your beautiful life!

I love this! Your woods in a neighborhood situation sounds like A DREAM! I feel so torn between the community and convenience of a neighborhood and the wildness and freedom of the woods. Like a suburb mouse or country mouse situation. Laughed out loud at your description of being the last out of the house because you have to bring a book. I feel like the scene from Gilmore Girls where Rory can’t zip her backpack because there’s too many books sums up my entire personality 😂

I love this prompt too and I love what you said about books. My husband mocks me sometimes for wanting to escape in a book and you worded it so beautifully!
