Cool and rainy August day

Yesterday was a weird day in the sense that it was August 2nd, and the high in DFW was like 80! That is RARE! It rained pretty much all day, and I took the day easy and enjoyed the serenity and relaxation provided by the rain and cooler temps! 

As soon as I woke up this morning, I was excited thinking about what I was going to eat for lunch! My filet from last night...of course!!! As I mentioned yesterday, it reheats VERY well and it didn't disappoint! The dogs were SOUND asleep since it was rainy and yucky outside. They could not have been less interested in what I was doing all morning until....                                                       

As soon as I grabbed the food from the microwave, these two decided they needed to check things out! I'm not one who enjoys to be stared at, so I asked them to go lay down so I could eat in peace! Am I alone in this? I feel like they're judging me for what I'm eating, or how much...though I probably need that sometimes! 😂

I have been interested in the whole Princess Diana stuff since she passed away in the '90s, and I've been enjoying watching the shows about her that have recently started airing.I recorded this the other night. It's three hours long, so unless you're a crazy person like me, maybe wait until the special ABC is running next week. I'm sure it'll be a more normal show length! 

While I was hanging out watching the show, I enjoyed two of my very favorite things! 

Seriously! This is the BEST candle I've ever smelled. It is the White Barn Eucalyptus Mint candle. It takes forever to burn, and just smells heavenly! 

When it's raining and "chilly," aren't you basically supposed to have an afternoon coffee while relaxing watching TV??? I feel like it's a requirement! This is how I drink my coffee. Is it a bit neurotic? It has been described that way by others. Do all of those things travel with me where ever I go??? Yes, including a You Are Here collection Starbuck's coffee mug, and sometimes the entire coffee pot. Is that excessive??? Yes. Do I care??? Nope! It's coffee. I don't mess around when it comes to such things! It's like a hug in a cup! 

After the show, I read a few chapters from this book!

It is such a suspenseful, page turning type of book. Not too scary, which is good because I'm kind of a pansy. There have been moments where my jaw has hit the floor. If you liked Girl on the Train, or Gone Girl (I wish I would have heard about that prior to the movie) you'll really like this! 

What are my suggestions today???

1. Grab yourself a copy of "The Woman in Cabin 10" for a fast read to finish out your summer! It may take a couple of chapters to get going, but give it a little time! There's a moment not too far in, and you'll be HOOKED...and confused!

2. Go get that candle! I NEVER pay full price for them. I always wait until I see a candle sale, and buy several at basically half the price. The Bath and Body Works version is basically the same exact thing, so if those are on sale I'll buy those. It just depends!
