I started off today feeling more "woe is me" thoughts, as I was headed out the door to drop Owen off at Aunt Sue's for a day of parades and pool-time fun while I stayed at home on the couch. But my day actually turned out pretty great. Every window in my house was open letting in a nice warm breeze, I finished another vampire book, I even laid out on my back deck for about 20 minutes to get some SUN. I would have stayed out there until I fried if I wasn't so afraid of cooking the baby - it was seriously hot out there today! I've been taking prescription Vitamin D supplements due to a very low level of vitamin D (thank you, horrible Michigan winter and spring), and I swear I could feel my body soaking up the vitamins in the brief time I baked in the sun this afternoon. Hopefully I can stop taking the supplements soon, if we start having more days like this!
This afternoon I went over to Aunt Jan's to pick up Owen, and got to spend a glorious hour with my family, who I have missed! I got to watch Owen run around with a bucket of pool water and cool off all our toes with it, had some dinner, lounged on a chaise lounge in the back yard with my aunts and Nana Pat, and even had a sip of someone's Summer Shandy, which tasted... like summer. Thanks to Aunt Sue Sue for showing Owen such a fun time today (he talked about it the whole way home), and Happy Memorial Day!
