yesterday we ate tomatoes, basil, peaches, and even garlic straight from the garden - papaw's garden of course. we picked peaches straight from the trees and then i laid on a blanket in the backyard and read my book. summer never gets old. even when all you did during the summer was go to late night movies and sleep in the next day, work part time as a waitress, read for your own pleasure, become addicted to army wives and eye lashes, hike, and BBQ on your little grill nearly every night. summer never gets old, even when you didn't do anything really important.
the past two weeks have been hard. going back to school has been hard. trying to figure out what i actually want to do with my life right here and now is hard. somehow i thought when i got married and graduated from college, i would have some of these "important" things figured out...but i guess not? but for now, i am grateful for this weekend and the warm weather that has reminded me that i get to choose to be happy everyday. yesterday i was happy just to pick peaches off of a tree and today i will be happy to go fishing (p.s. i'm going fishing for the first time today) and tomorrow i will be happy that i have choices to choose from.
i want fresh peaches! they sound delicious...enjoy.
