Going to my happy place
It is Monday morning and my body is tired, sore and I am on my period. I haven’t had a day off since we went to Florida the end of July. I knew it would be like this when I booked two classes in a row to earn some extra $ to go to London next month. And, despite the hard work and exhaustion and feeling like I always have to be somewhere doing something 24/7 lately it will be worth it. In times like this I go to my happy place(s). I have several of those. Some of them are:
Florida – going to my friend’s house. This is us dancing at their luscious pool in the back of their FAT house across the road from the beach.
Outdoor showers. Our Florida friends also had a shower built outside by the pool. B and I took several of those together while we were there. (And, Zest soup reminds me of those. I put a bar in my shower at home)
(Despite having to ride to work in the heat) Riding my motorcycle. I need to do that more often. I fantasize about the day I can play hooky and ride up to the mountains.
London and seeing my sister again. I have not seen her since Christmas.
Champagne bubble baths with B.
Sleeping in with clean sheets on the bed.
What are your happy places?
