Mini vacation: Sometimes
just taking a break from routine is all the vacation one needs. Not always, but
sometimes. Even better if the break from routine includes a first time-trip to
a water park. Last week, I didn’t write much, I didn’t read much, but I did an
awful lot of other things that were just as important and enjoyable, I worked
on things that have been neglected and played in ways I’ve never played before.
And now I feel reenergized and ready to play with words again.
Fall Fashions: The
beginning of my week involved beach towels and sunscreen, and the end of it
involved flannel and “Autumn Orchard” candles. The local stores and malls have
all their fall gear out and I couldn’t be happier. There’s a reason I have a
piece of wall art that says, “I’m ready for hoodies and cold nights.” I am
perennially ready for fall. I’m sure many of you are groaning at me and hanging
your heads, moaning the typical moans about “It’s only August!” But we are coming up on my favorite part of the year and I
am unashamed and unapologetic. I will try to refrain for sharing Christmas
music until after Halloween, but I make no promises.
Lol. Boy are we related. I want nothing more than fall right now. I bought an apple cider candle the other day. JOY!!! It's still in the hundreds here so no go on dressing for fall yet, but I can dream about it! :-)
