A Beautiful Day

Twas beautiful today as we were graced with blue sky and sunshine! The Northwest of late has been one gray day after another, so today was just a wonderful day to be outside enjoying the sun.

I spent most of the day being productive - I washed my car, trimmed the shrubs around the fire hydrant to make sure it is not obstructed, fixed the screen door (which Matt pushed right through on his way out), and pressure washed a good portion of my driveway. About that, it really is an exercise in futility because there are sections of my driveway which have sunk, thus not sloping toward the street and creating a lovely bowl in which water likes to gather. Nevertheless, I did my best to remove a few years worth of dirt and grime from the cement and the sections I did today look much better. Tomorrow should be nice as well, so hopefully I can get the rest of it done.

Aside from working too hard for too many hours, life is so good right now. The sunshine, of course, does much to increase my joy and optimism, so here's to the glowing days of summer!
