A few of my favorites.....

July is over.  August is here.

That means school is right around the corner.  Next week actually.  Thursday, August 8th will be my first day back.

Summer flew by, like it always does.  Here are some favorites from the last month or so.....

We purchased all of the laundry room renovation materials.

Bob is scheduled to begin this renovation tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!

I got to write and teach a flag routine for a local school.

I miss being the color guard instructor for my school district.  I did it for, gosh, like 12 years or so?  So getting the chance to twirl a flag every so often is nostalgic.

I finished my second Gillian Flynn book.

She is the master of twists you don't expect!  Favorite author.

I put one of my favorite thrifted finds in my booth last week.

I secretly hope it doesn't sell.  But the purpose of getting a second space was to purge.  Even if it hurts my heart.

I have been looking for a vintage inspired bathing suit.  Most that I find are outrageous in price.  But while running into Old Navy last weekend, I found a bikini top that had a vintage vibe to it.  And it was cheap, so I snatched it up.....

The matching bottoms were only online, so I snatched those up too.  I love cheap bathing suits.

I'm not much for physical activity.  Exercise is not something I want to do.  It's a necessary evil, however.  

Anyway, I tried my hand at a five mile (HILLY) walk the other night.

And I DID IT! 

I think it could easily become a favorite.  

I also went to my second hot yoga class and liked it much better too.

Maybe there is some hope for this exercise-challenged girl.

Linking up with Rolled up Pretty,
