A moms idea of a vacation

This is my absolute favourite journal page so far!! And it's funny how it's about one of my favourite days in a long time. I needed a day to myself so my wonderful husband watched the kids so that I could take off and go to a coffee shop for the afternoon. I sat and drank and amazing cup of coffee, ate a yummy wrap and bowl of soup and just read. For some reason sitting in a public place has always given me anxiety. I always thought that people were looking at me and wondering why I was alone. Now that I'm a mom I don't care what people think... I'm just happy that I had time by myself!! I ended up getting quite far in my book (Eat, Pray, Love) too. Funny how in the book she talks about American's inability to just sit and enjoy doing nothing. Technically I wasn't doing nothing, but I was doing something just for me for the pleasure of it!

Food for thought...

First of all, yes I deserve the worst blogger in the world award! I've done nothing on here because all my spare time has been spent closing house deals, painting the new house, packing the current house and tomorrow I go back to work. I've done some creating but haven't posted it. So my goal is to update over the next few weeks.

To start: Here's some food for thought! The first was the result of a spaghetti dinner.

The second: A celery flower!!
