Happy 4th!

It's 11:30, and John is still in bed on this holiday day off.  Since the mail doesn't come on holidays and Sundays, they are the only days he gets to sleep in.  Since I typically wake up around 8:30, it's nice to have a few quiet hours to myself where I can sit around and do nothing and not feel too guilty about it, since I wouldn't want to wake him up anyway, right? So I'm being nice,  not lazy.

So far today I have finished reading one book, started reading another, played iAssociate on my phone, and watched an episode of Dawson's Creek on netflix. It's a tough life.  The rest of my holiday plans include doing laundry, cleaning the kitchen, and cooking up some stuff to fill the freezer for those mealtimes that I don't feel like cooking.

And, of course, posting some photos.  I take so many photos of my flowering tree every spring, that I played around more with the editing on these ones so I didn't have the Same. Thing. Every. Year.

The new floor that John and Friends put into our family room. Looking great!

A different angle

I was buying some clothes online, so I had to double-check my measurements

Even Yoshi likes the new floor!

If I remember correctly, the asparagus had a lemon-miso dressing on it.  It was really good!
