yesterday morning, as we pulled out of our parking lot (way earlier than normal, and therefore, actually on time!), gearing up for another day of the dc grind, husband asked me a question that made my heart ache just a little bit. “grace, when is the longest day of the year? did that come and go already?”
“yes”, i replied. “it came and went over a week ago.” there you have it folks. the cold hard truth. summer is slipping through our fingers and we have almost nothing to show for it.
before we even know it, fall will be here and we’ll be planning for thanksgiving and possibly a puppy. more on that at a later post.
so dear friends, make sure to embrace the glorious sweltering heat. it's 100 degrees in dc today - perfect weather to do this:
and bask in the twilight sun at eight p.m. tonight just because you can. trust me, you’ll be regretting it in december when it's freezing out and you are under house arrest by the weather, with not much to do but stare at your tv and fold laundry. you'll think back to today and wish you had gone on that sweet twilight stroll (ice cream cone in hand - optional, but highly recommended).
happy weekend in the sun!
