And Suddenly It's Summer

All summer long I have longed for summer - yeah get there, because it sure didn't. I'm usually out of control busy with work during the summer and don't get to soak in as much as I'd like.  This year my schedule was much more manageable and I had dreams of warm days, cute dresses, cuter cover-ups, endless sandals and homemade ice cream treats.  Well here's to a big fat that never happened.  So yesterday as I was toiling away with a million things to do for the first time this season you'll never guess what happened?  We hit 90 degrees here at the beach.  Here's a big ol' middle finger - at what I'm not sure, but I just feel like throwing up a bird in utter frustration.

Try as I might to come up with a way to escape it was a no can-do situation.  So around 6:30 I threw in the towel before hanging myself with it, tousled the old wreck of a lid and threw on a couple of the many items that have been hollering to get out of the closet.  Ashleigh?  You out there?  I'm sure you recognize the skirt...sniff sniff.  It was so great to take in a real summer evening where you didn't need a jacket, a sweatshirt, a scarf, pants and socks.  No exaggeration.

 I couldn't even be bothered to deal with a cuter shoe.  

It's SoCal at the beach.  It's a rainbow flip flop.  It's my pasty skin :(

 Hello no sleeves.  Hello vest, I love you.

RIP Martin+Osa.

The sun's going down.  I still don't need a fur coat.  Where am I?

Somewhere warm. Yay! It's here!

And too quickly it was over.

But hopefully it'll be sticking around for awhile.  

Do you ever just feel like the universe is playing a big ol' trick on you? Not today universe, not today.
