Lazy days of summer.....

Yeah right!  I have, however, finished three books this summer and we've spent several weekend days out on our new boat.  I'm not quite ready to admit summer is almost over.  I enjoy the warm weather a lot more than the snow and cold weather that winter brings.  If summer has to come to an end then I will be excited for the arrival of fall, my second-most favorite season!  Crisp mornings, pumpkin bread and apple picking...Mmmmm.  Can't wait!  Carson and I went for a 6.5 mile run this morning before spending some time at the park.  I'm trying to decide if I am going to enter the 1/2 marathon this fall.  Can I run that far?  I'm not sure.  Why do I want to run that far?  I'm not sure about that either.  Mike put the idea in my head and it seemed like a good challenge.  I'll have to decide soon.  Until then I'm just going to enjoy my beautiful summer day!

Life's Little Pleasures

Enjoying a cup of coffee and some homemade (but slightly overdone) banana blueberry bread on my porch while Carson naps.  A quiet moment enhanced with a slight breeze on a balmy but sunny summer morning.     And then...he wakes up!
