in the thick and thin of summer...

I go to work when I wake up and get to it.

I take midnight bike rides on Freedom Creek.

I immerse myself in dirty lake water (enjoying every second).

I sleep in view of the stars more often.

I listen to music louder.

I spend more time without clothes suffocating my body.

I make green grass my napping blanket.

I cook and bake like the housewife I never want to be.

I find the happiness I always knew I had.

I capture more photos for the memory books.

I miss old friends.

I become nervous about August plans (or the lack there of).

I am moving with the summer tide.
