Home alone on a Friday night. Some might say its for losers, I say it is nice to have a calm evening by myself. I am currently sitting outside, feeling the nice summer breeze wash accross my body while enjoying a glass of wine. It’s hard to believe that the summer is almost over.
The hot months have seemed to pass by in a daze. From wonderful moments like my fathers 70th surprise birthday. That despite the chaos, went off without a hitch, to my week long vacation in Illinois visiting Renae and her new born baby girl. I honestly think if I would have stayed there any longer I would have taken over my iPad camera roll. I think I ended the week with about 100+ photos of Elyse also known as “Ms El”.
And then there were the sad times. For this, I will refer you to three of my nieces blogs as I feel I wouldn’t be able to capture it as well as them. I still can’t believe that Nancy is gone or what a bigger impact she would have on my life after she left.
So here it is about 30 days from my 30th birthday and I can’t believe that the summer is slowing fading away. The nights are getting darker earlier, the studying for school will soon start but I am looking forward to what fall has in store. New opportunities at work (fingers crossed) my birthday, possibly my first Halloween wearing a couples costume with G.C. (I know, silly but it would be a first for me) and a Thanksgiving without a key family member.
The summer is inching closer to fall but I’m ok with that. For now I will enjoy the breeze and the closing of the summer that was unexpected. Enjoy my peaceful night tonight before the crazy labor day weekend begins. With my glass of wine, book in my hand and nothing but the brightly lit “blue” moon to keep me company.
