Today has been a day filled with many of my favorite things. So many. It has been fabulous. I've loved it.
I slept in.
Watched Gilmore Girls while eating my cereal and drinking coffee from my huge mug that's as big as my face. Then ate some M&Ms. Cause I'm a girl. And eating M&Ms at 10:30 in the morning is much more acceptable than eating them at 6:30 in the morning. Not that I ever do that...I'm lying...
Bought a magazine at Walmart.
Went to a boutique in search of a good deal. I was not successful but shopping at a boutique makes me feel like a big girl with a large sum of discretionary income. Its fun to pretend these things sometimes.
Went to a small, new lunch place that makes everything from scratch and looked through my newly purchased magazine while I ate.
It was Food Network Magazine. Which was totally worth the $4.27 in my opinion. I enjoy it a lot. Its not a magazine full of ads for pills or merchandise. I hate magazines like that.
This lunch place has homemade bread and infuses their water with delicious things like pineapple and watermelon and strawberries. I felt healthy drinking it and it was delicious.
I talked to my good friend on my way to the outlet mall. The conversation was refreshing and much needed.
Bought a maxi dress. Maxi dresses have a way of making me feel like a supermodel. I feel pretty and stand up straighter when I wear them. Sometimes all it takes is a large amount of fabric capable of covering my entire lower body. They're miracle workers I tell ya.
Talked to another friend while shopping. I was looking through underwear bins in the meantime and because of the distraction of talking on the phone I was sifting through underwear for a completely ridiculous amount of time. I then proceeded to walk out the door (kind of without thinking) and as a result did not take advantage of the 4/$10 deal on panties. Dang. Oh well. It was totally worth it. Even if people where starring at me the entire time wondering why I appeared to have some sort of underwear fetish. I got to talk to and listen to and laugh with a good friend and that is all that matters.
Bought a completely perfect waffle cone with chocolate and chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. It was hot outside and it dripped everywhere as I sat outside on a bench in front of a random store. It was too good for me to even care I was making a huge mess. I love waffle cones.
I'm not in Starbucks drinking Dark Roast coffee and pretending to do something important while all I'm really doing is writing this and occasionally perusing the internet.
Today has been relaxing and divine.
I feel pretty ready to conquer whatever challenges I may face tomorrow. Which is good. Cause I have to work on scheduling and pretend I know how to operate Excel. Lord Jesus please help me to have a heart full of gratitude tomorrow as much as I have today even while doing tasks that can be frustrating and mundane. You are great and deserve all the glory and all the praise all day and every day. Give thanks to the Lord for he is GOOD. His LOVE ENDURES FOREVER!
