11 May A Case of the Incredibles.
This week has been filled with lots of really incredible things…
Incredible thing #1: Sleep. Monday morning started out at 9 o’clock am. I was planning on going to Zumba, but I let myself off the hook because…well, generally I don’t do that.
I was woken up by a phone call from the boy, which is always the perfect way to wake up. I did some dishes, made some phone calls, decided I was still sleepy…so I went back to sleep. I know…you think it’s too incredible to be true. Well it’s not…and it was fantastic. (For the record. I don’t think I’ve ever just gone back to bed and slept for hours like that.)
Incredible thing #2: Beautiful music. I don’t watch Dancing With the Stars, but my mom does. Tonight was the results show and I happened to see just enough to catch a glimpse of this incredible song. I love it. I love everything about it. It makes me happy.
Incredible thing #3: A happy Henry. Last night he looked like this…
But today he looks like…this…
Although you may not be able to tell…this is his cozy-I-love-my-peaceful-easy-living-life-happy-place for napping.
Incredible Thing #4: Leisurely Reading.
This book was purchased for me at the end of last semester by my super friend Kimber and I have yet to read it. The reason being? Well…I actually don’t have a good one, but I do believe that books serve a purpose…so maybe the timing is good now for me. We shall see. Thus far it has been rather hard to get into simply because…it’s a hard read. It is sufficient to say I am looking forward to the redeeming part of the love.
Incredible Thing #5: Not reading for school.
If you can believe it…this…
…THAT is what I have to look forward to for the summer. But that is in a week and a half. And…for a week and a half, I shall continue to enjoy the incredible things that are in and of themselves simple things, but combined with no educational pressures, are precious gifts that a small slice of time off of school can make you appreciate.
Incredible Thing #6: French Vanilla Cupcake by Cakes by Darcy
Darcy’s philosophy? “You are what you eat, so eat something cute.” {Note: This is a misrepresentation of Darcy and her perfectly adorable cakes. This photo was taken after it had been traipsed around in my bag for a quick slip into Target when I didn’t want it to melt in my car.}
For the record, this cupcake was divine. The chocolate icing=amazing.
Incredible Thing #7: Spending time with my best friends.
My faces hogs the picture, but her baby blues steal the show. |
Tomorrow Kimber is making the minor trek up to Woodstock and we are having a play date. I am beyond…ecstatic! We are going to have brunch, take lots of pictures, and hopefully enjoy some nice weather that won’t hit a blistering ninety degrees! Either way the day promises to look blissful.
Incredible Thing #8: Exercise.
Since I have had extra time to myself, I have had the pleasure of going to more of my favorite girls classes. This week so far I have done kickboxing (which completely kicked my butt, it was awesome), Zumba (which is a must), Pilates (which is forcing me to review how strong [or weak] my core really is), and tomorrow is Yoga (which just. makes. me. happy!)!
A very Happy Wednesday to you…xxxoo.
