Fantastic Friday

I had a ridiculously horrendous dream last night. It really put a damper on my morning and I felt pretty on edge/weird as I got ready for work. Ever have dreams like that -- that just shake you up and make you feel like you're living in some alternate universe? Anyway, after thinking about the dream for my entire bus ride to work, I decided I needed to get over it. I am going to make today a positive day (hence the fantastic Friday headline). So, at least for today, back to my typical overuse of exclamation points!

Here's what's making Friday so fantastic:

1. The obvious: a huge bowl of watermelon for breakfast (and another piece of zucchini bread, which has been a hit with everyone in my office!)

2. I can't believe how many tomatoes are coming out of the garden. It's seriously insane! Here's another huge bowl I collected, including some big ones! I need some new tomato recipes.

3. I'm going to DC in a few hours and my friends have planned an awesome weekend for me. I seriously have the best friends and I love them all.

4. I've now gone to spinning three weeks in a row! It is so freakin' hard but it feels good to put all of my emotions into killing that bike.

5. The sun is shining. To be honest, I am not feeling these mid 70s temperatures. IT IS SUMMER! It should be in the 90s and humid....I should not be wearing a sweater outside. In any case, the sun is out and there are blue skies...so I will be happy!

6. Liz and Marvin have a nice camera and have been bringing it to our family events. I haven't had nice pictures with my family in a long time, so this is exciting!

8. I have noticed that my face looks a bit thinner recently (especially can notice in the pictures above) -- that's a good sign!!!

9. I finally got a new case for my kindle. It's simple but I like the color!

I tried to think of a #10, but that's all I got for today. Happy weekend kids.
