11 AM started off a mini vacation for myself. Half day today and off all day tomorrow! I picked up Jake and we headed home. Michael was working from home today so it was nice to have him around! Jake went down for a nap pretty quickly and I was excited to get my afternoon started! I put on a tank top and flip flops and made a fresh pitcher of lemonade. I grabbed my book, a glass, my sun glasses and my iPod and headed out for a relaxing afternoon of reading. Just sitting here on the deck, soaking up some Vitamin D, made my day. I love being able to watch my glass sweat and see the beads of water pool at the bottom of the table. It's a reminder of warm summer days that are heading our way. I spent a good 45 minutes reading until the noise started. I looked over and there were about 6-7 men working on the road. We have a few meteor craters that crash landed onto the street. These potholes are ridiculous. Well they were out fixing them. At first, I admit, I was annoyed. I was trying to enjoy the sun and get my read on. I was annoyed until about 5 minutes later when the sun got so hot, the shirts began to come off. What?! Am I in some weird dream?! You couldn't really see their faces but you could see their 6, 8 and 10 packs. Wowza! I had no problem with the noise after that! Another 30 minutes later, 5 chapters accomplished and 2 glasses drank, I headed in. Jake got up and we had errands to run!
Michael let his license expire. Whoops. It expired in December. He was a little panic because he thought he would have to take his test again. Turns out, you only have to if you let it expire over a year. Good to know. We then headed to Gordman's to get new pillow for the living room and pick up some clothing for our growing 2 1/2 year old. We stopped by Farway and picked up some potatoes and steaks. Fantastic! I was so pumped! We started cooking when we got home and had an amazing family meal. Jake of course wanted a turkey dog instead of steak but he ate everything else! It was magnificent! I am excited because I left overs for lunch tomorrow!!
Tomorrow is a lovely day off work! I need it. Plus, it's suppose to storm! I can't wait. I love thunderstorms! They are so fantastic! Downside is I will have to keep Jake entertained inside! Shouldn' be too hard! Right?! Ugh, we will see!! Today was amazing and perfect! I wish all days could like this!!
