Hello there! Thank you for popping in today! I am linking up with Anne in Residence for her monthly link-up:
Eating
Now that it is summer, I am trying to eat more vegetables. My new favorite is spring mix lettuce, strawberries and feta cheese with balsamic vinaigrette.
Feeling
A week ago we had extreme heat: 95, humid, sunny. Then the temperature dropped to 55 and rainy. On Friday, I was shivering and put that down to the big drop in temperature. At night, I rotated between shivering and sweating. The doctor had me do all this blood work and a chest X-ray. This cycle started 5 days ago, but I'm feeling/hoping like my fever might have broken last night. Also, the blood work showed that I have anemia.
Anyway, yesterday I went in the pool to vacuum, and this insect paid me a visit! I looked it up, and a praying mantis is a sign of good luck. I'm hoping that I will started feeling better very soon!
Going
My husband and I are going to Block Island in Rhode Island during the last week of July. We are staying for 3 nights. I have never been so I am excited to check it out!
Ordering
My daughter is getting married next June which means I need a mother of the bride dress. I have learned from my sons' weddings that finding a dress is no easy feat. Dresses that look great don't always look good in real life. This dress ~ I fell in love with but waited until it went on sale to buy it. The dress arrived a few days ago, but I haven't had the energy to try it out. I am hoping for success!
Realizing
I live for the summer! I love going in my pool with the sun shining on my sunscreened back looking at the tall, green trees and the bright, blue sky. I love reading books! I highly recommend this one:
Well, this is all of my news for now. I am wishing you a happy and healthy summer!
Oh, I love that dress and I hope you love it on. I also hope you get your health sorted out -- that doesn't sound fun :(
ReplyDeleteI hope you are indeed feeling better! And totally agree that one was a great pool/beach read. I also recently enjoyed Joshilyn Jackson's Mother May I, which was a similar kind of page turner that also had some motherhood-related themes.
