Surprising Saturday

susandennisI got to the pool this morning and briefly considered skipping the swim anyway. I just wasn't feeling it and my ear was clogged up already. It didn't need an hour of water added.
But, I already was there and had my suit on so I got in and kicked off and had one of the best swims I've had in a long time. And it wasn't just my imagination. I just went to the Garmin stats and, sure enough, I swam faster than usual both on pace and total time. So weird. But cool. I do think I'm going to skip tomorrow, though.
Then on to my new little cafe. It's so far away and seems even farther but the minute I walk in the door, it feels 100% totally worth the inconvenience. The food is interesting and different and good. And the ambiance is just perfect for Saturday morning breakfast. Plus last week, I saw on instagram that they have a window case of amazing pastries. Today I went up to get a good look and yep. They do. I came with a massive slice of almond bundt cake.
Then to the Dollar Store. Just a quickie this time to fill in for some items I forgot last week. Then on to Popeye's - lunch and dinner are in the house. Then a 3 item stop and QFC (grocer) and a slide through McDonald's drive thru for a peppermint mocha to get me home.
Just perfection.
Next up is changing the sheets on the bed. I would have changed them before I left for the pool but Zoey was sleeping in and I couldn't bring myself to make her get up. But, she's up now so I think I'll do that and then run a load through the laundry.
Then I think I'll trot up the street to the sewing store to see if they have any stretch machine needles. If they don't, I'll order some online but I'd rather buy from my neighbor.
The sewing room needs a tidy. And I have TV that needs watching and a sweater that is mid-knit. All is good here.
