Wow... where has July gone? This month has literally flow by. It seems like just yesterday I was packing to go to my friends' wedding. School will be starting soon. Everyone is trying to squeeze in their last minute family vacations. And here I sit. I still can't believe I don't have to pack my suitcase and head out on the road again. The fact that the mere thought of not traveling makes me giddy only proves that GF Guy and I made the right decision not to tour again. I love my home, my family, and my life. It may not be what other people think I should be doing, but I don't care. I am so happy with the simplicity of it. Every day offers a new chance, a new opportunity. I can only move up from here, and I plan to! LE SIGH... I love this feeling of contentment.
My eats yesterday were grabbed on the fly and completely devoid of inspiration. There... I said it for you! :-) hahaha I was bustling around all day. I am a very regimented person when it comes to my meal times. Well... yesterday, I was so busy I didn't even notice it was over an hour past my lunchtime until... well... over an hour past my lunchtime! I literally did not stop running up and down ladders and in and out of storage rooms all day. (I secretly LOVED it!) When I finally arrived home around 9:00 PM, I just couldn't muster up the will to cook anything, mainly because I didn't feel like cleaning the pans. Now that's laziness for ya!
Breakfast: GF Oats with PB2, Cinnamon, and Strawberries (I am almost out of my Cream Hill Estates GF Rolled Oats! NOOOO!!!! No one sells them around here. I am going to be forced to order them from Canada. I hate shipping fees! GRRRR....) Why, oh why, did Cream Hill Estates make me an oatmeal snob?
Today, I am off to St. Pete to celebrate my dad's birthday. (Happy Birthday, Old Man!) hahahahaha! He is the best daddy in the world, and I love him so much! He taught me what a man should be. He has never raised his voice around me (except at a hockey game), always shown how proud he was/is of me, and makes me feel loved every single day. I thank God for making him my daddy. I am one lucky little girl! We will be going to the beach and a baseball game. By we, I mean both GF Guys entire family AND my entire family. Now that's a party! My little brother even flew down from Massachusetts for the event! (He's isn't exactly "little" anymore. In fact, he is over 6 feet tall and over 200 pounds of pure muscle. He is an ice hockey player. I'm so proud!) I FINALLY found the charger for my little camera so I can take pictures of the whole event. YAY!!!!!!!!!! I have felt completely naked without it, and have missed so many photo ops.
In other news: Tomorrow, Kim Hopkins over at http://thefoodallergycoach.blogspot.com will be hosting a GF Blogger Carnival. One of my posts will be featured. Be sure to check it out.
Okay... got to run! Bye!
I love that you are so happy and content - what a great feeling!
