I came across this personal inventory on another blog recently. Unfortunately I cannot locate the source. I was doing a lot of catch up this week after being off the grid the week prior so I was all over the WWW.
Playing Ruzzle.
I am not a gamer. Except now I
am. In fact, just typing the word Ruzzle
right now presented me with the overwhelming urge to get on my phone and play a
few matches. So I did. Games are serious time sucks.
Drinking not
enough water and too much caffeine.
Eating plenty of
tomato sandwiches and salads, lots of leftovers and really anything that can be
grabbed on the fly for we are spending more time at the ball park than in the
kitchen.
Watching movies. Edward
Scissorhands this week, which was way creepier and far less funny than I
remembered it. Also Next Next Food Network Star and always some reality t.v. that shall
remain unconfessed. Also clouds in the
sky and birds in the backyard.
Listening to
Pandora. James Taylor radio in the
mornings and Jack Johnson or REM radio in the eves. Also Sense
and Sensibility when I walk.
Wearing summer
shoes : Reefs and Birkenstocks make me a happy girl. So do skirts and Perscriptive’s Caylx my go
to summer scent.
Reading And the Mountains Echoed. So poignant just like Hosseini’s earlier
novels. Also Barbara Kingsolver’s Flight Behavior, and I’ve so many more
worthy reads in cue it makes me giddy.
Feeling rather
hormonal truth be told. I am blessed out
one day and beat down the next.
Wanting the
entire summer off and maybe fall and winter too. I guess that is really the answer for
dreaming.
Wishing time
would just stop already and stand still.
After the 4th, summer seems like a slippery slope. I keep telling my glass is half empty self
that we still have ¾ of vacation ahead of us and months of great weather, but
it has yet to take hold.
Hoping I can
figure out just how to use my new Nikon before Friday’s game since it is his
last on these fields and maybe of the season.
Also hoping that tomorrow’s game is not his last.
Thinking that
almost 9 and 12 ½ aren’t too shabby.
Miss Bit and T. Bone are busy enjoying a summer to remember.
Enjoying all
things summer: plums, nectarine, green grapes and red cherries, an extra hour
of sleep in the a.m., a 10 minute driveway to desk commute on workdays, boys in
uniform, firecrackers and cloud creatures in the sky, vacations and staycations
with my family, Instagram especially Project Life 365 and my mil’s recent snap
of my girl loving on a hen named Henrietta, more daylight every day, iced tea
and my new Bolle’s.
Loving life.
