Lazy Days Of Summer

Hello there!

Back again with a mid-week blog post; hope your week is going wonderful so far. Mine has been great! Monday was laid back, got some laundry done and was treated to some amazing lasagna, compliments of Yvonne. Tuesday brought an impromptu shopping trip to Grande Prairie. Then, I returned home and met up with Kristina for dinner at the Blue Bridge Restaurant followed by her hen party, thrown by her sister. Kristina’s Wedding is in two days! Crazy how fast it’s come, looking forward to it.  Today was wonderful! I started the day by having brunch with Yvonne, Crystal, and Mom. It was lovely to get out and laugh with the girls, and Java Domain always has great food. After brunch we went thrifting and I bought some new linens, scarves for my hair, buttons,and two of the sweetest teacups you’ve ever seen. We also stopped by the fruit truck from British Columbia to get some fresh fruit. They had my favorite, white cherries! Soooooo excited! When we came home there was a quick thunder storm, I LOVE thunder storms.Later, we had some delicious pineapple chicken for supper. This evening I’m relaxing, writing my blog post, and listening to the angelic warbling of Miss Billie Holiday. It’s been a perfect summer day! Hope your day was just as lovely.

Spring flew swiftly by, and summer came; and if the village had been beautiful at first, it was now in the full glow and luxuriance of its richness. The great trees, which had looked shrunken and bare in the earlier months, had now burst into strong life and health; and stretching forth their green arms over the thirsty ground, converted open and naked spots into choice nooks, where was a deep and pleasant shade from which to look upon the wide prospect, steeped in sunshine, which lay stretched out beyond. The earth had donned her mantle of brightest green; and shed her richest perfumes abroad. It was the prime and vigour of the year; all things were glad and flourishing.

~Charles Dickens

Oh, the summer night
Has a smile of light
And she sits on a sapphire throne.
