Best Day

Today was the best day ever. My computer said that it was 75 degrees, which was incredible considering that if I was in the states, it would have been 45 degrees. I was able to sleep in and had nothing on my agenda.

So I applied for a few jobs and sent a couple of emails. After that, I got dressed in a wrap dress and heels. Then, I decided to go on our balcony and read. So yep, I got dressed to go on our balcony, but it was what I wanted to do and I didn’t have to explain it to anyone.

I got my music out, made a glass of iced tea and kicked up my feet. After about 90 minutes, I got bored and went over to see Drew and Jocelyn. Took a walk through the neighborhood and was simply smiling the entire time. No reason, just wearing sandals and relaxing in London, can’t really complain about life when it’s like that. 

After going back to reading Good in Bed for another hour or two, Audrey called to invite me to a drink in Covent Garden. As much as I wanted to go, I’m scaling back the booze money, or spending money on anything, so I skipped. 

I moved inside as it was getting dark. Almost at the end of my book and it was really fun to still be reading and not be bothered. Athena called and invited me for pie. Since I was almost done with the book and technically pie is a necessity, not a luxury, I conceded. I put on the dress and heels I was wearing earlier and caught the bus to Oxford Circus. We walked, talked and got Ben & Jerry’s. Mmmm, chocolate chip cookie dough and fudge brownie!!! Plus catching up with Athena was great.

After about an hour relaxing and being amused in Picadilly Circus, we headed home. Back here now, showered and ready for bed. Relaxed and ready to greet the day tomorrow. Here’s hoping I can get some equally wonderful sleep!
