Believe it or Not

Despite all my whining about yard work, I actually just enjoyed myself outside. The temperature was not brutally hot or humid and it was late in the afternoon so the sun wasn't as strong so it just felt pleasantly warm. I could smell the freshly cut grass and hear the peaceful sounds of summer. It felt good to be out, relaxing even. And bonus, I was able to de-weed the whole front bed. So now that the weeds are under control again, my next yard project will be the bushes. I'll get to those either later this week or sometime next week. One thing at a time. I'm definitely learning to give myself breaks this summer and to keep a good balance of staying active and busy, but also giving myself some R&R. 


I finished the "50 Shades" series today. It took one week for me to read all three books. They got worse with each sequel - in terms of cheesiness, not shock value. Part of me wishes I had stopped after the first book which I still definitely recommend as a hot, trashy read, but curiosity got the better of me and I just had to know what would happen in the end. I have yet to venture to the town library even though I've lived here over a year now, so I think I will definitely have to check that out soon. If anyone has any book recommendations, I gladly welcome them!
