Happy Fridays!

Hello, Friends! How has your week been? My week has been very busy. The summer is drawing to a close, and that means high school. In less than a month. I'm nervous and excited, and can't wait until I can see my friends again, and having daily things to accomplish. 

Am I the only one who makes a list of activities I want to do in the summer? Every year I make a list. And I've done most things, some I've skipped. Summers are about relaxation, and we don't get to do every single thing. Yesterday, I got to scratch off something from my list--go to a nearby spring I love. The water was a bit dark from all the rain we've been getting, but oh so chilly and crisp! It's so fun going there, swimming around, lying in the sun, and then grabbing a bite (or two!) of ice cream before heading back home. My brother and I always jump off the high dive there, and what an experience! Lots of people do, but it's so far above the water, staring down can make your stomach swim for those few seconds before you jump. It really goes against the survival instincts to jump from so high off into icy spring water!

I hope your week has been sunny and full of fun!

xoxoxo,

Robin
