Look at what came in the mail!
Do you know what this means?! It means that Summer isn’t very far away! It means I get to go through my yearly ritual of selecting a new swimsuit (Yes, I usually get a new one every year. I”m not sure why.) It means extra motivation to keep working out so I can look my best in said swimsuit. It means that warmth, sunshine and lazy days will soon be mine for the taking. It means more time outside with Little B. It means days at the pool and the splash pad will soon be the norm. It means less dirty clothes to wash. It means I will be listening to songs like “Summertime” by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince (Yes, I’m old.) and Kid Rock’s “All Summer Long”. It means flip flops, tank tops and shorts will reappear. It means picnics in the park and trips to the playground. It means concerts with friends and sunsets at the beach. It means longer days and tanner skin. It means more slurpees and fewer hot chocolates. It means fireworks and sparklers. It means sunglasses and painted toe nails. And most of it all it means another Winter has passed!
What does Summer mean to you?
But in all seriousness, I am fit but I am not a Victoria’s Secret supermodel. However, thanks to all of the hard work I do, I am probably in the best shape I have ever been in. So . . . . maybe I will take a chance and show it off a little this Summer.
In my college years, I enjoyed many long walks on the beach and late night talks with the man who would become my husband.
