The past couple of weeks, I’ve had the pleasure of enjoying
the beginning of summer. Since my position at work was eliminated in mid-May, I’ve
been on the job hunt all while “catching up” on life. While I was sad to leave
my job and I miss my co-workers, volunteers and collegiate women, I do LOVE all
of the positives of not working! I’ve been working since I was 16, so a little
break is well deserved and in no particular order, here are my favorites of the
summer…
I love to organize, so I’ve cleaned out and organized every
closet, cabinet and drawers in the house. It’s been fun to clean everything out
and start “fresh.”
The pool…ahh, how I love the pool!!! Feeling the warm sun
on your skin and chillin’ out in my sit ‘n float at the pool is one of the most
relaxing activities of the summer. Whether you’re having a good day or bad, the
pool is sure to put a smile on your face!
Sleeping in – I’m a person who is accustomed to getting up and
starting my day, but I’m taking advantage of sleeping in while I can. You’re
probably thinking, “She’s pretty lucky to be sleeping ‘til noon.” For me,
sleeping in is about 9 am!
Reading is one of the most relaxing activities a person can
do and I’m catching up on many of the books that have been on “my list” for
quite some time. If I keep this speed up, I’ll need to get a job tomorrow for
my visits to Barnes & Noble.
Spending time with my friends – because I traveled so much with
my position at Alpha Xi Delta, I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to spend
time with my friends. Let’s just say, that in 6 years, I achieved Platinum
status on American 5 out of 6 years and I’ve flown nearly 750,000 miles! While I
truly enjoyed the free upgrades to first class (and the free wine) and not
paying for checked baggage, I’m thrilled to be in Cincinnati for when my
bestie, Michele, delivers baby #3!!!
Establishing a regular workout again – whether it’s working
out on the Wii or walking Francis Park, the regular workouts feel good and have
been a nice boost at my weekly weigh-ins at Weight Watchers!
