I’m always in need of a good mechanic. ;)
Never been this brown in the first week of June. (no instafilter) (Taken with instagram)
It’s like a freaking inferno outside. INSANELY hot, even for me. I could actually feel my skin cooking at the pool. Don’t worry, I wore loads of sunblock and my shirt most of the time.
But really, Summer.. WTF?
while Eli watched a movie. He said, mommy.. I totally don’t mind if you train before we go to the pool.
What a guy.
Now - we party at the fun pool!!
My husband works for a social agency, as a counselor to at risk youth and teenagers. Every Summer, they hold a camp. Simon is old enough to go (Eli isn’t yet). So today is the first week of that camp. The morning was a flurry of packing lunches and clothes and towels for Simon while Eli sat on the couch and felt sad. I promised Eli I’d make sure we had a fun week - just the two of us.
I’m SUPER tired today. I set an alarm to go for a run, and I just could not will my body out of the bed. I kind of feel like I’m not getting enough rest on the weekends, and by Monday I’m wasted. I may just need to back off for a week and see if a break helps.
Eli asked to go to the pool today - so that’s the plan after lunch. I have a few special surprises in my pocket for the week. Most of all, I want to spend time with him. Dunno how my training will fit into that, we’ll see if it does.
This is how my weekend ended. With an awesome girlfriend and a ton of laughter.
Best. Life. Ever.
Goodnite!
