Hello Summer!
I know, it's felt like summer for at least a month now in most spots in the country, but today makes it official. It's summer! I lovelovelove summer. I like seasons, I just want summer to last at least six months of the year. Maybe it's because I'm a Cancer. Maybe it's because I was raised in the South. Maybe it's because I'm addicted to flip flops that will most likely ruin my high-arched Barbie feet. I may not like 98-degree temps with a heat index of 103, but I'll take it over cold, lifeless winter any day. I'm done with winter after the holidays. I used to get a little sad on the first day of summer because it meant its ending was also confirmed. But since I am still trying this whole positivity thing lately (some days it works, some days it does not), today I am stoked for the solstice. And to give summer a proper welcome, I enlisted the help of my pal Foo. Yes, she's outfitted in a doggy life jacket and fabulous doggles. And she will make do splashing in her kiddie pool until she can get to the lake. I got this pic in my e-mail a month ago and even put it on my fridge because I still smile every time I look at it. So smile, it's summer!
