Gone Fishin'
Well, not really, but I do need a little break. I'm taking a few days off from posting - from thinking - from working - from not napping - from schedules - from living life on a time clock.
It's summer, and summer means a slower pace, right? Mine is anything but that. But for the next few days, it will be slower. I hope Ashley will let me sleep just 15 minutes longer. I may take a bubble bath after she goes to bed at night. I will savor a dinner, not just inhale it. I will listen to the birds, and dead head my flowers. I will scratch mosquito bites and wear flip flops until bedtime. Heck, I might even have a wine cooler or one of my mother's drinks of choice, a Tom Collins. (I have no idea what a Tom Collins is but it sounds like summer, don't you think?).
So enjoy your weekends, everyone. Stay cool and I will see you all again very soon.
I recommend a mojito for summer. Very light and refreshing.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your time off; you write a great blog. I'll be waiting for you to come back.
I hear you!! My summer is ALWAYS busier than the school year!
ReplyDeleteI just had to read this one. My dad's headstone reads, "Gone Fishing".
ReplyDeleteHope you get the rest and relaxation you need. :)
