What I'm Reading This Week #16

Good Friday to you!  Literally.  I can't believe Easter is here.  Anyone else having epic wind and rain storms over the past month?  I mean good friggin' luck trying to enjoy any time out there and we're not afraid of weather.  As I type, there are 40mph gusts.  I went out to paint the critter cages on the planters and feel like I have hypothermia at 47 degrees when yesterday's weather forecast said it would be 74 today.  Da fuq?  Guess who finally took the bedroom Christmas tree down Wednesday?  It was neutrally decorated so it was fine but it came on every night and gave a cozy glow.  I knew one day I would look at it and know it needed to go to sleep until November 1st.  That's the other thing, I will be decorating for everything extra early from now on.  August 1st- Fall decor as I will thoroughly be over summer by then and given that's the day Mom passed, I'll need something to lift my spirits.  November 1st it'll be ...

On the water

It's Wednesday...hump day-uh!!!!

It's been a kind of emotionally draining 7-10 days and when that happens, I need a bit of a soul recharge in the form of water therapy.  Last night I knew it would probably be my only chance for paddling this week so I asked the Mr if he was down and he was.

He wasn't the only one.  The crew team was also practicing.


Apparently a bunch of sailboats from a marina were out and about as well.


Doesn't this look like an idyllic scene?


I won't tell you I was thinking "how much longer to shore?  I have to piss like a racehorse."  Oops, I guess I just did.

Thankfully when I was making lunch, I decided to brown up the turkey so I'd just have to heat and broil for dinner.


Ground turkey tostadas with black beans, corn and pepper jack.  Yum!

I've got a busy work day ahead of me today so I'm glad I took a little me/us time last night.

How do you recharge your soul when you need it?

    It was the perfect day to paddle and now we have a stake in October as well so that's a good thing. We'll take it when we can get it.

    Wow, that looks just beautiful! So very peaceful, and I love seeing those sailboats. =o)

    I love my drives in the country for a soul recharge. And when I can't do that, I visualize the North Woods and the sounds and smells of the forest and that helps alleviate stress too.
