(1) A great big, tall glass of water. While I was outside today, all day, this water kept me hydrated and healthy. Water with ice; great stuff. 
(2) The music. Between driving and sitting and reading, and all the lazy things I did in the sun today, the radio and my, as mentioned, Walt Disney CD treated me quite nicely. I just love the oldies station, 92.9 Today's Lite Rock, has done me well. Today's bright sunny tunes included:
What a Feeling (Flashdance) - Irene Cara
Take My Breath Away - Top Gun Soundtrack - Berlin
Take My Breath Away - Top Gun Soundtrack - Berlin
How Does She Know - Enchanted Soundtrack
...and many more.
(3) Bright pink toes. After reading, for a while, and sitting outside, I painted my toes a friendly, cute little shade of pink. I just love pink nail polish, it's my favourite. There's just something so fun about really cute looking fingers and toes, and sitting and laying in the freshly cut grass made them even better.

(the freshly cut grass curtousy of ... ME)
(4) A good old fashoined workout. That is right, I mowed the lawn. All me, all alone. I started the mower and everything (which was the hardest part by the way). I felt like a real, grown up, woman after that. I was so big and tough, you should have seen me. (I did, however, wear my bathing suit top and shorts; in effort to get a little colour while I slaved away in the backyard). I was one grassy, sweaty, oily mess after that one, but it was worth it. It felt great to be out there in the sun doing something new. I've never mowed a lawn before. It was liberating! I jsut might try it again sometime. 
Nothing's gonna stop me now.
(5) Breafast for dinner. I love lazy days, when no one feels like cooking. "What is the easiest thing, that we can make in bulk (to feed the masses), that still tastes good?" The answer is always going to be eggs. Some form of eggs, scrambled, sunyside up, egg salad. They're just so easy, and delicious. Breakfast is the best meal, and when I', always missing in the mornings, dinner seems like the perfect time to get caught up on my daily dose of deliciousness. 
(6) Michelley Meesh. Her and I have a bit to much fun together, I think. This evening we went quickly to the beach to see this, 
and honestly, it was a little cold, and pretty cloudy.
and honestly, it was a little cold, and pretty cloudy. But then we got to talking and decided a shopping trip was in order. We headed home to shower and eat, quick as we could, and went shopping. We went to Winners to look for dresses and shoes for Meesh (where we found no dress. we did find cute shoes, on sale, but I wouldn't let her buy them because we're saving up and they will not go in her suitcase when we move back to Alberta). Then we went to a hair salon where I found the perfect sade of nail polish, I've been looking for. I found 70291- Pink Voltage (Neon) by China Glaze, and I just love it. I did buy it because I've been loking for it for a long time and ALSO it fits just fine in a suitcase, adn weighs next to nothing!
Then we went to institute at the church (showing up alte becasue our shopping adventure got a little out of hand), and then decided to be social. We joined the gang at Applebee's for half price appetizers and a chance to be a little bit socialble this fine Friday night.
Wow. Much longer, more involved, day than I expected it to be (or that I expected to talk to you about). It was a good one though. Another big huge summer day, of 27 degrees, to follow.
Goodnight all. I do hope summer is treating you each well, and bringing you a daily dose of a few of your very favourite things!
I will list back at you
ReplyDelete1. Water is heavenly. Water in Canada is better then American Water. No matter how much I drink I'm never hydrated here. It's too dry and hot.
2. I'm listening to that Enchanted song right now. I haven't heard it in ages. Thank you.
3. I wish my feet were as cute as yours. Seriously, I have cursed feet. I have fingers for toes. Probably not a detail worth sharing..
4. I've mowed the lawn maybe once, and never started the lawn mower. I will probably think starting it is the hardest part as well... totally agree with how much more of woman stuff like that makes you feel. I do the dishes here at Jeremy's and I feel more woman. Ha.
5. You two are hilarious. Michelle needs a van to move out west otherwise she will have extreme seperation issues with her huge shoe collection.
6. I mixed these two up.... darn.... oh well. There is something so satisfying about a picture of your breakfast. I'm convinced if you take a picture of what you eat, before you eat it, it generally tastes better. Seriously, burn something, take an artsy picture of it and eat it. It will taste okay.
Who did you go to Applebees with? Remember the days when we ruled the school (aka the hang out times) and we'd be the first to say lets go to Applebees. We need a posse back!!
