I did intend to do some work while I was over here, but I've been indulging sybaritically (sp?) in unadulterated pleasure - reading Things a Bright Girl Can Do, The Enchanted April, and Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine; watching Project Runway with Wendy and Annie, Moana and Wallace and Gromit with the whole family; and last night I discovered the delights of American Ninja Warrior. It's gripping and intense, and made even more entertaining by Cece's running commentary to the competitor of the minute - "Come on! You can do it! Don't give up! You're doing really well - don't give up!"
But I've been active too. I've been for bike rides, and on Saturday I went trampolining with the girls. It's surprising how much difference it makes to be engaging in physical exercise one mile high. Your breath doesn't go so far. I found that today too when Wendy took me for a lovely hike on the nursery slopes of the Flatirons:
I don't do a lot of lazing about when I'm at home. I'm always busy with something. So it's good to have a real holiday. It's also good to be able to order a margarita whenever I'm out. I wish my local cafe, Hassop Station, served margaritas, but as far as I'm aware, it's impossible to get one even in Sheffield, my nearest city.
Are you crazy? There's loads of places to get margaritas in Sheffield!
ReplyDeleteYes, since I wrote this, I have found out about some.
