Walking around outside is the best, especially since all these beautiful flowers are now out to say hello.






Pretty!

We put the tarp portion on our backyard shelter over the weekend and I spent a lot of time beneath it reading. After the winter we had (yes I'm still mentioning it) being outdoors is the best! I didn't get a chance to blog on the weekend but I'm looking forward to borrowing John's laptop soon so I can enjoy the outdoors and write at the same time. I love it. I'm not used to laptops, so I am already reminding myself to keep it plugged in, as I pay zero attention to the battery life and it always dies on while I'm in the middle of typing.

The office from last year
We are supposed to get some rain over the next few days, so I might keep my office activities indoors until the weather's nicer, but I'm really looking forward to outdoor summer writing time.

They are selling soft serve ice cream at the corner store for $2. You can choose between vanilla, chocolate, or swirl. I always get swirl. It is so good. There is something about soft serve that just tastes like being a little kid. I just love it.

Every time I go to get a cone (I've been three times this season already) there are always at least five other people sitting out front eating soft serve too. It is definitely a community thing, and for only $2 for a pretty high cone, why not?

We had a few rainy days earlier this week and it has really gotten our garden growing.

John built a neat little fence around the plants, which I think makes them look great.

I've had Paul McCartney on repeat for pretty much my whole life. I loved the Beatles growing up and branched out into Wings/Solo territory when I was in my teens. I have loved and obsessed over other musicians/bands over the years, but ever present was Paul McCartney.

Today is McCartney's 72nd birthday and I thought I would mark the date with a song I had on repeat often in the mid '90s. "This One" is still a favourite that I don't mind hearing more than a few times in a row.
