Is it July already? Where is this summer going? I've hardly gotten a tan, it's been raining everyday...I've got PNW weather without the perks and benefits of living in the PNW.
Ugh. And all this rain is killing my garden. My watermelon is holding on, growing a tiny bit. I've not been able to hit the pool much either due to the weather. Although I did make it out Saturday for a short 1200m swim. I had time to run Monday morning but with "
deadly cloud to ground lightening" I rolled over and went back to sleep until 9. This morning I opted to pack my car up so I could head out from work, straight to the beach. I feel ill-prepared for the upcoming July 20th triathlon (
that I have yet to register for) but I feel compelled to register and do it...I might get last place.
I am excited about this being a short week. The 4th of July has always been my favorite holiday!
LB and I are heading to the beach for the long weekend. I'm pretty excited and he has promised to go for morning runs and evening walks on the beach with me, if we get around to it. A friend asked me what we were going to do...Um, hang out and do nothing. That's what the beach is about. It's about sitting back and letting go. There is nothing to be done; no To Do list, no appointments, no schedule...it's beach time.
What are you up to for the 4th of July? Any family traditions or favorite things to do?
I'll just be enjoying the festivities here at Fort Leavenworth, which luckily (depending how you see it) are within walking distance to my house. But other than that, I'll be relaxing! Enjoy the beach!
ReplyDeleteYeya! I love being able to walk to stuff! Definitely not like that here in Fayetteville, as you know!! I miss that about being at Ft. Lewis! Hope you had a great time!
DeleteI have a 5K tomorrow and then I will decide what I feel like doing..it may just be sitting around and doing nothing but read a book. Enjoy the beach!
ReplyDeleteI hope your 5k went well!! Nothing wrong with sitting around reading! That sounds good to me!!
DeleteWe are headed to Lake George on the boat for the day! Enjoy the beach!
ReplyDeleteBOAT!!! I love days on the lake, especially when a boat is involved! I hope you had a great time!
DeleteHappy 4th of July! We went to a rodeo last night and are still up in the air about what we are going to do today.
ReplyDeleteOoooh! Rodeo! I haven't been to a rodeo in years! I hope ya'll had fun!
DeleteAhhh sounds like the perfect plan - 4th of July on the beach!! We went to NYC to visit family, it was anything but relaxing, but we still had a good time.
