time off

I am sitting here typing this post from our family's beach house, although I really should be cleaning up. We planned this long weekend away a while ago, but it could not have come at a more perfect time. Between tax deadlines for Peter and meetings and projects for me, work has been stressful lately. Not to mention, the emotional end of the Dodger's season. So this time off at the beach was definitely needed.

We spent our time doing the usual things, sleeping in, watching a lot of hgtv and espn, eating at our favorite places, enjoying large amounts of frozen yogurt (um...irish mint...yes, please), and shopping. I am really excited about some super cute black and white accent dishes found at Pottery Barn on sale and a wall hanging that I think might work in the guest bedroom (with a little tweaking of course).

The weather was perfect and the time spent away with Peter was even better.

Now its back to the Valley, back to getting up early, and hopefully back to working on some house projects. I think Peter is sensing my ansyness, as it is only a couple months till the Holidays and then tax season sets in. When life as we know it ceases to exist.
