Naps

Who knew a nap could change a day? I woke up yesterday "bah hum bugging" the whole 4th of July thing. Spending the day at the club was not my idea of fun... chasing Kendall, worrying about her near the lagoon, getting my fat self into a bathing suit so she could swim, slathering on sunblock - not my idea of fun!

So, we went to the park and hoped for rain. We stopped at Boston Market for lunch (and ate inside) - yea, 10 raindrops on the windshield on the way home - things were looking up. We came home and, in an attempt to sleep during the storm we were expecting, took a nap.

A glorious, restful, 3-hour nap. I woke up feeling great. I guess I have needed a nap for about 6 months and didn't know it. So, we packed up and went downtown for dinner and fireworks. It was a great evening with perfect weather - even the bugs were few. Who knew a nap could fix so much!
