Nice to have a weekend off once in awhile...

On Saturday, a friend and I drove out to Kelowna for a day of shopping and good times. I spent way too much money, but really enjoyed myself! We even stopped for some mini golf before heading home. Boy was it hot outside! We were going to stay in Kelowna for dinner but a giant forest fire started while we were in the mall, and there were evacuations going across the lake. We decided to leave the chaos and have a nice dinner back home.

Sunday we got up early and went out for a nice breakfast before heading to the spa to get manicures and pedicures. It was my first time, and I really enjoyed it! It felt so good to get my feet pampered after spending the previous day walking on them! I thought my manicurist was going to chop off my thumb after I messed it up on my way out the door, but she just smiled and fixed it for me. Nice lady!

Today I got to play with my friend's new puppy. His name is Gus and he is adorable!

Bullet notes

Been awhile since I did a real update on here.

• My summer has been pretty uneventful so far. It seems like my days consist of work, movie watching, knitting, and pool time (when the sun is out). I have plans next weekend that consist of a day in Kelowna and a trip to the spa. I'm excited for the break in routine. My days have gotten pretty predictable. I'd like a bit more spontaneity in my life.

• Yesterday my mom and I moved the furniture around in my room. I've had it laid out the same way pretty much since we moved here 13 years ago. It's a nice change without too much effort involved. I still have some boxes to go through before that room is totally in order, but it is getting there! I thought it would take me a couple of days, yet here I am 2-3 months later, still hacking away at it! I'm not sure if it's the vast amount of work involved, or the turtle pace I'm working it. Combination?

• My glasses are fixed. I was able to pick up my new frames the other day. It's nice to not have to worry about them breaking every time I take them off. My darling mother has also offered to pay for contacts for me, so I have an appointment next week to get my eyes measured.

That about sums it up. Tune in next week.
