Weekend Reading 6.16.19

Hello! Hi! Happy Sunday night. How can it already be Sunday night? I'm not ready for this. As usual, it was another crazy week – and weekend. I worked yesterday so today I wanted to take some much-needed time for myself to reconnect a bit, not only with what it is I like to do when I'm not working but also with where I call home. Spring and summer, in my opinion, are the most beautiful times of year here in Maine. Right now, the lupines are blooming, blanketing roadsides in purple and white, and even though the weather has been mostly awful, it's easy to look past the rain and see how gorgeous it is here. SO that's what I did today, drove up to Rockland for a little vintage shopping. This week I'm hoping to take a little more control of my schedule and maybe even see Chris – who has been working even more than I have been. Life is wild sometimes. Hope yours was a good one – nice and relaxing, the way weekend's should be.
