peace out

I’ve decided the laundry can wait, the bills and errands can wait and so Harlow and I are off to the beach. I’m going to try to catch up with a friend and enjoy this amazing sunshine-y day!

Chelsea is one of my best friends and today is her birthday! You can read all about her awesomeness here. I really, really miss her!

“Si exagerásemos nuestras alegrías, como hacemos con nuestras penas, nuestros problemas perderían importancia.”

Anatole France

I love this quote so much I have it taped up at work, at home and I think I had it in my car for awhile. It says that if we exaggerated our joys the way we do our sorrows our problems wouldn’t seem as important. Sorry I’m really bad at translating even though I do read and speak Spanish. But how true is that? When something goes wrong it’s so easy to blow it up out of proportion. It’s almost a habit. (At least for me) Sometimes we need to calm down, step back and put things in their proper perspective. I know I do.

Here’s to a good week of exaggerating happiness! Happy Monday!

This has been such a weird week… and not in a “what? i won the lottery? weird!” kind of way. I’m definitely looking forward to a very chill weekend – hopefully doing very little. I need sleep, sun and probably ice cream.
