Summer Lovin...

First Monday of Summer Vacation and.... mmmmmmmmm... I'm in love.....

• Loving getting up at the crack of dawn and being able to run, get a load of laundry on the line, clean my house, and check emails and Google Reader all before 8:00AM.
  
• Loving making a To Do list, and actually checking most things off.
• Loving the heat and humidity.
• Loving working in the yard and reading whatever I want, when I want.
  
• Loving my summer uniform of bike shorts, sports bra, tee-shirt and flip-flops.
• Loving seeing my family more than just in passing.
• Loving being free of the Net-Nanny and having access to whatever I want online.
• Loving feeling like the whole summer is in front of me.

• And loving..... my new baby girl.... sigh...

Summer Life

First day of my Summer Life!!! It's been a long time coming...although on one hand it seems to have flown by. It was a very good year despite the dreaded Alternate Assessment and lots of major decisions to make regarding kids.

I'm totally geared up to start my SL in my most favorite way: A cup of coffee, a load in the washer, and an early morning run. Consuming coffee now, load of wash started, and run will take place soon. My To List is made and I'm totally psyched to dig in.

There's just one little, itty, bitty addition to my summer life... introducing baby Bella! (Yes, she was up 4 times last night, but getting up is part of being a new momma!) It was time to bring a new puppy into our lives after losing Nigel 2 years ago. The kids have been begging me and now that I'm home for the summer, it's the perfect time.
