It’s summer!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s my all time favorite season… but not for reasons you would think… as the heat really does get to me and I never seem to be cool enough. \u00a0I love summer for the lackadaisicalness that it allows in my life.<\/p>\n

I love the freedom of sleeping in… though \u00a0that hasn’t happened yet this week. \u00a0I love the freedom to say to the kids, “Let’s.<\/em>… ” and we go and have an adventure. \u00a0I love that we can hang out with friends… especially me being the social creature that I am. \u00a0I love lazy meals of watermelon and BBQs. \u00a0I know this is going to disgust many… but I do love a hotdog… but know that they are made of things I probably don’t want to know … so I only have them every once in a while. \u00a0I love that we can run away on the weekends to mini vacations, if we choose. \u00a0I love wearing my summer uniform… shorts and tee-shirts with my flip-flops. \u00a0I love the cold treats… ice cream, freezies, slushies, popsicles… lemonade… actually I have a fondness for pink lemonade… yes, there is a difference!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I love summer. \u00a0I love all things that remind me of my carefree days of being young…especially my growing up years in Orlando… with my one time lost.. but found, thanks to Facebook, bestie, Heather. \u00a0We had so much fun. \u00a0I loved those years… ages 10-12… I had so much lightness…while I was playing… a break from the heaviness I’d often feel while I was at home.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I saw the ice cream truck, yesterday, while in TO with my younger boys… we were being tourists. \u00a0It was the last thing we did, stop at the ice cream truck… and the ice cream man was just like the ones that came by our neighborhood… he was so friendly and happy. \u00a0He was very wrinkly and grey… and yet he seemed to be playing rather than working. \u00a0I love him… and his obvious joy. \u00a0He must have been \u00a0retired and did this for fun.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>(This is for sale… under $20,000… I mean Sammy gets his license in a few months… maybe this could be a joint adventure for the brothers… Hum…)<\/em><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Seriously… I’d love that as a job. \u00a0Can you imagine driving the ice cream truck around… that happy music playing, kids of all ages looking at you, pointing, asking if they can have one?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ok… I’m sure if Sanj reads this, it would disturb him that I have aspirations to be an ice cream truck person… but really it would be a hobby… so don’t worry, dear… I’m still working on the best seller! \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Summer… How I love you!<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
