It's no secret that summer isn't my favorite, but I'm trying to embrace this season for all of the good that it holds -- a chance to slow down and enjoy life, wear sandals, eat outside, and savor a little more daylight.
Here are a few things I'm keeping in mind to enjoy this next month:
- Go through my closet and donate any of my summer clothes that don't make me feel fabulous. Life is too short to wear things we don't enjoy.
- Wake up earlier to have a leisurely morning, instead of my usual rush.
- Buy fresh flowers for the kitchen table, and try to keep my orchid alive.
- Unplug from the computer, iPad, and phone for one blissful day.
- Eat as many tomatoes and peaches as possible, straight from the farmer's market.
- Stop and get lemonade at a lemonade stand.
- Eat an ice cream cone at least once per weekend, calories be damned.
- Spend a day taking pictures of everything I find beautiful.
- Clean out/organize something that desperately needs it (junk drawer, makeup bag, closet).
- Enjoy early evenings the rooftop deck of my apartment, reading.
- Relaxing weekend getaway with my beau, just the two of us.
