I couldn't ask for a nicer birthday weekend. Oh, its a holiday? Well, that was nice too.
We swam, more than once, and I would love to say that we relaxed in the pool with gin and tonics, but we did not; I had Snapple Peach Green tea instead because I have chosen to clean out my closets this weekend so I can figure out what I have to wear, and better yet what I need so I can let myself sew again. I was truly afraid that gin would cloud my judgement, and I was trying to be firm in my resolve that only the fabulous would survive.
Sun, pool, playing with clothes and jewelry, food on the grill, tennis and fireworks. What more could I ask?
Except that today is also sunny, sunnier than yesterday and it is not suppose to rain. That makes two days in a row with no rain! Really I am thrilled, even though I have only looked at the sunshine through the windows this morning because I spent all morning watching the men's finals at Wimbledon.
The remainder of the day promises to be just as relaxing: some time in the pool, perhaps lounging in the shade with a book, and some more closet time as well. After all, I have to find a space for the pretty new baubles G gave me. But those will show up over at sewdistracted, which is where I used to talk about clothes and style and sewing, which is being resurrected in the next few days.

Happy Birthday! Good to hear that you’re already having a great day — may it get even better. Enjoy! (that pool looks awfully inviting)
Have a wonderful, wonderful sun-filled day. We’ve had the 2 days in a row sun thing here too. Doesn’t it feel like a miracle after this summer’s weather?
Happy Birthday week!! I hope this year is filled with dream come true, trips to the Menil, and plenty of time for reading.xoxo
