Ten days of bliss. Indescribable freedom. Limitless possibilities.
The vacation has begun with a bang. I had a fun lunch with five friends today, and I had enough left over for dinner (always a plus). After lunch, I shopped at two of my favorite places. I got a birthday gift for my former stepsister, who is very dear to me and to whom I am very close. I also got some things for me. I tried on many things, and I ended up with 8 new tops. I didn't choose 8 tops on purpose--it just happened to be that I got the same amount as my favorite number.
After shopping, I came home and enjoyed the mid-70s weather and lovely sunshine while Boxer dog ran amok in the yard. Best friend stopped by for a visit, which was great. Later, I did a good deed for a child, which is something I try to do often.
Now Boxer dog and I are sharing the couch. He's snoozing while I enjoy wine and Law & Order reruns.
Today was a great day, despite still being separated from the one I love. I made no contact with him today, and I didn't hear from him. However, I enjoyed myself so much today that it didn't bother me greatly.
I'm excited about ten productive and relaxing days. The books are waiting for me to read them, and I have plans to get my hair done and get a pedicure. The rest will fall into place as the days progress.
I'm getting ahead of myself, though. The fun will begin only after I mow the lawn tomorrow!
