dreamy/practical

Last night I slept 7 hours 45 minutes. I woke up naturally, no alarm. I've been tired. Not tired as in the why I am so tired, tired in sense that I get up early, have full days and repeat this cycle Monday through Friday. Today, I feel well rested and well rested feels good.

I'm on a little mini-vacation for the next 5 days. We are heading to the cabin later. It's still mind blowing that it's almost the 4th of July. We've got something pretty huge planned for September so it's not like I'm wishing summer away but I can't help but be excited for summer to be over.  I know that sounds horrible but you see, we are going to Norway! We went this morning for two of us to get their passports. Two of us already have one. I've been planning this trip for quite sometime. I still have a few more details to plan. Gosh, I get so excited just thinking about it.

Back to the present though, I always love when Mary Beth does her dreamy/practical blog post. I'm kinda doing some practical things today before we leave but nevertheless, here is my dreamy and practical for the long weekend:

dreamy:
reading an entire book.
sleeping 8 hours every night
knitting (like a lot)
hiking/yoga
maybe even enjoy a glass of wine each night

practical:
passport appointment - check done!
planning for Norway
digging into my new planner (dreamy? )
cleaning the house when I get home on Monday
gardening some on Tuesday (somewhat dreamy too)
meal planning and budgeting

I've decided to do a NO spend July and hopefully August.  I think that might deserve it's own post though and I need to get back to packing.  Happy 4th of July :)
