It’s a good thing today is a holiday because we’re all still in a sun-stupor. Breakfast was so late that we decided to count it as lunch. Naptime was non-negotiable—for any of us—and a homemade chocolate frappuccino courtesy of my ever-thoughtful Dan was the only thing that pulled me upright afterward. We’ve skipped almost all socially recommended forms of getting ready for the day (read: clothes) and gotten straight to work lounging away the afternoon. Time consuming, that one is.
While I wish I had something more profound or provocative to write today, truth is that my mind is still back at the campground doing cannonballs into the pond and swinging two-by-two in hammocks and cheating at Crazy Uno to help the little ones win. My thoughts are still soaking up purple mountains at sunset and the happy-making mess of s’mores, s’mores everywhere. I’m still cocooned in a sleeping bag nest with my husband and exclaiming over fish (as only true city dwellers do) with the girls and piling around a picnic table with friends. And I’m going to go ahead and say that’s okay.
What were your favorite moments from the weekend?
the nap on Sunday. Hurray for naps!
Oh, man. I am so jealous of your pajama day today! I LOVE pajama days. My weekend favorite is B-o-r-i-n-g and really sad, but I am excited that I got all three of my class’s online webpages ready to go! It took all of yesterday, but I got a voki to work and a news page up, and my syllabus done and linked. I did some other stuff too, but those were the major things.
P.S. I miss summer already.
It is more than OK. I love that you did this. 🙂 My memories are clouded a bit by illness, then brightened again by sunshine and a warm hour on the terrace. Tomorrow I fly to Malta for my own little escape. 🙂
Liz – I still rebel against naps most of the time, but there’s always one every now and then that hits the spot.
Megsie – Hey, that doesn’t sound boring to me. Of course, accomplishing my to-do list is the most celebration-worthy thing in my weekly life, so… 🙂
Krista – Ooo, can I come? 🙂
