The Daily Balance

Happy Thursday, everyone!

I apologize for my lack of posting yesterday. The Mister and I took the day off to spend some much-needed time together and I wasn’t about to waste even ONE SECOND on the computer!

The morning was spent going on a walk for a tasty smoothie, followed by Eclipse and THE BODIES exhibit. We then headed over to one of my favorite restaurants and capped the evening off with Neon Trees. What.a.day. It actually felt like a summer COLLEGE day. Ya know, before we had jobs, obligations and deadlines. Oh how I long for those days. College and high school students – HANG ON TO THEM! seriously.

Alright, enough whining. Let’s think about the moments this week for which we’re thankful. I’ll start…

I’m thankful for:

My health

Beautiful weather and lowered humidity

Simple dinners that allow me to spend more time playing outside

Neon Trees, for letting me ROCK OUT

My friends, and that the Mister and I are so busy with all our fun, upcoming plans with them

The upcoming long weekend with multiple cookouts and spending time with family

Fresh, in-season fruit – nothing beats it

America – and the freedoms it provides – can you tell I’m feeling patriotic?

What are YOU thankful for this week?

   I’m so glad to be done school, though, hehe.
