As the saying goes, "sometimes its the simplest things that make us happy." Wait, is that even a real, true 'saying'. I'm not sure. And I'm also not sure that it really needed the quotes around it. Either way, it is a true sentiment for my day.
I am cleaning my apartment. It was in desperate need of some TLC of the elbow grease variety. Poor little flat. I've been in and out of this place so much the past few months it hasn't gotten the attention it deserves. So, today I clean. I always take a certain amount of joy and satisfaction from the process. I always find something I'd forgotten about. I make certain areas look better. I make it smell better. All good things.
After the cleaning...its time to turn my attention to me. Off to the gym for some serious sweat. IPod, New York Magazine, water...and me. Its our special time. And we need it. Desperately.
Also, today is my Dad's 59th Birthday. Happy Birthday, Dad!!! xoxo
