shooka-shooka shine down

The weekend…just as unproductive as the last. Even though I live in a wintery climate I was anticipating warmer weather as much as the next person, maybe even more so. The late season storm kept me from accomplishing what I had planned. With the continuous snow and highway closures my best option was to stay at home. I’m very much a homebody but when I finally have the focus and energy to get stuff done and I can’t, I get antsy. Those energy burst are few and far between so I try to capitalize on them but they always come at the most inopportune time, like in the middle of the night or in this case a blizzard. Though conditions changed my plans and my pace, there were some highlights.

 
A Getayway…Oh yes, yes I did. Booked a quick getaway to Miami/Bahamas that’ll be here before you know it. I’ll get to see my wonderful nephew Ashton; he prefers to be called AJ now, who is so unbelievably big it makes me happy and sad. After the obligatory family time, joking, it’ll be a few peaceful days in the Caribbean. So overdue but 25 days and counting.
 
Bonding…Talking to this girl on the phone. I feel like she’s been a teenager her whole life. We chat about shopping and make-up and all the girly stuff you can think of…It’s amazing that we’re so similar despite our limited interactions…my poor sister!

Pug and Pooh... Waiting so patiently for an invitation to snuggle. How I ever get anything done with this adorable distraction is beyond me.

Tea time… You know how some people say they were born in the wrong era? I totally get that by the way. Sometimes I get the feeling I was born on the wrong continent. My obsession with BBC television and passion for tea and biscuits in proof enough.


Peanuts and Paydays… Ok not the title but I love that part of the lyrics. Hearing this song (it’s on the top of playlist on the bottom) in below freezing temp brings the best warm fuzzies. Just happy, peppy, energizing music. Repeat.
