Summer Solstice

Today was the day when the sun reached the highest point in the sky at noon, making it the longest day of the year. For no particular reason, I have always wanted to take this day off ... to be up at the crack of dawn to do absolutely nothing, to take a mental health day.

So what did I do today?

4:30 am ... woke up - skipping my workout, don’t want to be tortured ... sat on my patio for awhile

5:15 am ... the sun started to peek, time to walk Binky ... maybe I’ll walk down to the store to get some extra steps in

5:45 am ... back home, we made it to the store, not too bad of a walk ... sat on the patio sipping on my apple/peach protein shake with spinach, yummy

6:45 am ... feeling refreshed after my shower ... decisions, decisions, what shall I wear today? I might go out later, so I decide to go with a cool sundress and flip flops ... listened to my book

8:45 am ... snack time ... a boiled egg

11:00 am ... I’m sleepy ... didn’t fight it, I took a power nap, only slept for 15 minutes, I do not want to waste the longest day of the year sleeping

11: 25 am ... lunch time ... fixed a nice green salad with grilled chicken ... and a glass of Moscato, because I can!!!!!

12:50 pm ... headed out to the movies to see “Ocean’s 8” ... heard great reviews about i

3:15 pm .. the movie was great. I’m a huge fan of Sandra Bullock ... time to listen to more of my book in Audible, book club is tomorrow

3:30 pm … ran a few errands before heading back home … it’s hot

5:30 pm … fired up the grill … I’ve got a couple of pork chops marinating which will go nicely with steamed broccoli

7:30 pm …sat down for a few minutes and dozed off … get up Tanya and move - listen to some music

8:00 pm … worked on my blog post for Friday

8:40 pm … it’s cooling off, I think I’ll sit on the patio for awhile before I head to bed.

Today was a good day.
