Hey, check this out...
posting twice in the same week!
Had beautiful weather for the 4th of July weekend up in Door County. Made me wish I had a convertible. Still, I took advantage of the awesome weather and drove around the peninsula with the windows down, refamiliarizing myself with a bunch of the back roads I don't normally drive on. I love driving and it really helped perk me up. Gills Rock pulled out all the stops on their fireworks display this year; very glad I went. Did a little shopping, picked up a couple of Halloween treats for the daughter: a ghost flag mounted on a vertical pole for her garden and a skeleton poncho. Also, picked up a few smaller things for folks: consumables, so my daughter can't complain about clutter. :) Breath mints, soap, infused olive oils, stuff like that. An all around satisfying vacation.
Took today off as part of my vacation and I actually got some of the stuff done around the condo that I wanted to do! Amazing. A list, just so I can look back at it with satisfaction:
• Swept and mopped the kitchen floor
• Folded laundry
• Sliced up strawberries and made shortcakes, which, unfortunately, were so good that I ate them all in one sitting. Oops?
• Cleaned off the dining room table, er, mostly
Actually sort of looking forward to going to work tomorrow. There's only two days left in the week! Yay!
