School's out!!! It's been a whirlwind of a school year with its share of "rainbows" and "clouds". But I am so thankful for those rainbows. And right now, I'm thankful that I'm on summer vacation!

Isn't it funny that it's so difficult to wake up when you have to and yet it's so easy to wake up when you don't? Oh, the human heart... I've been up since 6:30 and have already gone to an appointment, made myself a green smoothie for breakfast, had a cup of coffee and sat on my deck with the pup with a great book. A productive start to my summer, I must say!

Happy Friday to you all!
