Friday

Well, these weeks certainly are flying, aren't they? I have things I could be doing, yet not much gets done. It's Monday, then I run a load of laundry, make a To-Do list, drink some coffee, and suddenly, it's Friday! I blame the heat for my lethargy, and the allergies for my lack of ambition. However, I refuse to allow the word lazy to enter my train of thought! I think back to when I was a young mom with four kids at home, and think, "Dang, girl! How did you do it?!" And then, I relax and embrace this chapter of my life with gratitude, because I earned it. I can slow down, spend time appreciating, observing, and allowing life to unfold around me. Rest is not a four-letter word.

Something I did do this week? Celebrated Rhett's sweet girlfriend Kyrstin's birthday! Rhett had the most fun party for her! We all had the best time! 

Kyrstin is as lovely, kind, fun, and sweet as she looks! Happy Birthday, Kyrstin!

Kyrstin loves seafood, so Rhett picked up the most fantastic seafood boil. Crab legs, shrimp, clams, mussels, corn, and red potatoes all cooked perfectly with the best seasoning. For dessert, Rhett made a delicious tiramisu.

It was a great time celebrating a great young woman. 

Now, I am off to refill my mug. Have a nice day and a cozy weekend, my friends! Thanks for visiting!
