I love the days when I get everything that I need to done in the morning. I feel like I've earned an afternoon of relaxation and everything else I get done is just a bonus. Today was one of those days. I woke up early so I could walk the dogs and then got an anniversary gift mailed to P and grocery shopping done for tonight's dinner. Plus, I picked up the movie for tomorrow night's virtual date. So I didn't feel the least bit guilty taking my Cosmo out on the deck and enjoying a little Me Time in the sun. I'm thinking a pedicure and movie night (I rented Duplicity during my morning errands.) are in store for me later. But I have some dinner to cook first.
Today, I am grateful for:
* cute underwear. It helps. I'm not sure why exactly, but it does. There's something about knowing that you look cute all over, even if no one else knows.
* feeling productive enough to have guilt-free Me Time. It's the perfect day for relaxation, but I also feel productive and know that I'm not shirking responsibilities off on someone else.
* the latest issue of Cosmo. I don't think I've picked up an issue since I moved here, and yes, it's a little trashy, but I missed it.
* tomorrow's movie date. I love that P and I can have date nights without actually being in the same place. It makes the distance so much easier. And it's super sweet that he's the one who suggested it.
* the neighborhood dogs, including my own. They really are the best way to start my day. I get good exercise taking my own dogs for a walk (plus the bonus of a morning chat with my mom), but it's also just so dear to watch all the dogs interact and get so excited about a smell or a sound or each other. Their energy is contagious.
