Summer of the Blue Dress
Some things that are making life very good right now:
1) Dresses are apparently back in. I bought three a couple of weeks ago, in varying blue patterns and degrees of work-appropriateness. Also, cute sandals with tie-up ankle straps. I love me some dresses!
2) Two things I love about my house: when I lie in my bed and look through the windows, I can see nothing but leafy tree branches, the brickwork of the house next door, and the sky. If I tip my head and look through the bedroom door, through the bathroom, I can see the staircase, which for some reason I just love to look at. If it's daytime, I can see the sunlight coming down through the skylight; if it's night, I can see the glow of the string of lights I hung on the first floor bannister. It's just lovely.
3) I managed to force the ants in my kitchen into submission. Victory!
4) I bought lovely bath treats during my trip to Canardia. They are in French, too, which makes them extra-treatlike. I'm smelling pretty darn tasty nowadays.
5) This is the one spring week in Baltimore when, though the days are getting hotter, the nights are still nice. I pulled the weatherizing silicon from around the window frames and opened windows all over the house, and it's nice and cool in the evenings. I look forward to this week in the fall as well; here on out, though, it's going to be sticky.
6) Tomorrow is Friday. Yes!
