Saturdays


Another week comes to its end. I take a deep breath. Exhale and feel the built up tension collected throughout the week leave me. As I turn on some music and try to massage the knots out of my neck I think back on my week. It was good. My life is so blessed, I could never complain! I take a look at my to do list that sits on the living room coffee table and cross off my accomplishments, while circling what I hope to get done next week. As I mentally start planning out the new week ahead of me I find myself smiling... excited to find out what the next day will bring. I embrace life, I love the thrill of not knowing what could come next. It's mysterious, beautiful, always changing and full of surprises.

Still smiling I move on into the kitchen and start washing up the dishes that are scattered in the sink. As I shake the bottle trying the get the last few drops of soap out, I make a note in my head to pick up more on the way home from church tomorrow. I hear the sound of someone logging into iChat from my laptop that's sitting in the other room...curiosity gets the best of me and I go to see who's online. Not disappointed I am happy to see my sisters photo and I take a break from cleaning to say hello. As we chat about our week I find myself smiling and laughing once again as she sends me her newest favorite riddles and jokes. Time flies and we say our goodbyes for the day.

I finish cleaning the kitchen and start making dinner preparations...not wanting to mess up my clean kitchen, frozen pizza wins out as I slid a couple into the oven. Indulging myself to a can of ice cold cream soda (IBC, it's the best!) I kick my feet up on the couch and grab the book I've been trying to finish. Glad to have found out whodunit I sigh remembering the blog post I started this morning. Having only gotten a few sentences typed out before getting distracted and taken away from it, I should probably try to finish it before the night ends. Turning off all distractions I pull up the draft saved earlier and start writing. The rhythm of my typing relaxes me as I ramble on about my day. Once again a smiles steals my face as I think about the poor people who actually read my post through.

It's random. Scattered. Relaxed. Life.

It's Saturday.

Vacation!

My pretty awesome brothers (;D) have treated me to an great vacation this month in Maine. The weather is beautiful, lots of sunshiny blue skies days along with snow days that are gorgeous. I'm attempting to learn to snowboard this year, and well.. ehhh lets just say I'm still alive! hehe. No its going well and I'm starting to really enjoy it. :) I am looking forward to having something to do in the Winter which I usually tend to cringe at but am starting to love.
So here is a photo of yours truly to end this short and sweet post.
Wishing everyone a fantastic weekend! :)
