It's been a tough week, lovelies. Life is getting a bit overwhelming and my coping skills are lacking at best. I'm going to run away for a little bit to try to get my priorities in order and hopefully find a little balance. Last night I hit the magic "mark all as read" button in my reader and the relief that followed was well worth the twinge of guilt I initially felt. Today I am a list-making machine. A get-my-life-in-order list-making machine. I am so excited to start checking items off my list.
To celebrate (or self-medicate?) I am treating myself to a weekend of bbq and summer cocktails. What is your favourite summer cocktail? No tequila, please. This weekend is about sorting myself out, not about taking my clothes off in inappropriate places.

Ahhh, honey, I hate to hear that you're off-kilter. But, you're doing the right thing. Re-focusing, re-prioritizing and taking some time for yourself. I hope this weekend is just the start to your healing journey!
ReplyDeleteI've been on a Bloody Mary kick, but I don't think anything can beat a glass of champagne in the summertime. Toss in some frozen raspberries and you've got a cocktail :)
ReplyDeleteI hot Mark All As Read by mistake the other day and it felt AWESOME.
ReplyDeleteI'm a fan of vodka & cranberry blend...
You gotta do what you gotta do. I hope this weekend is exactly what you need.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite summer cocktail is a mojito or mint julep, or just a simple vodka soda or glass of crisp, cool white wine!
I'm having a sangria garage sale tomorrow at 9am complete with cookies :)
ReplyDeleteThat's how I'm coping :)
Wanna come????
I'll drop you a line on facecrack :)
Mojitos! So refreshing :)
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend - hopefully this weather sticks around for it!
Raspberry mojitos! You can make them with vodka or rum, depending on your preference. (I can't drink vodka, but most of my friends prefer that.)
ReplyDeleteXOXO sugarplum! Hope you feel better soon!
FIREFLY!! lots of ice, 1/2 firefly, 1/2 lemonade. doesn't taste like alcohol. i don't even LIKE iced tea and this is the best summer drink everrrr.
ReplyDeleteI am very much a gin and tonic woman. Bombay, Bombay Sapphire, Broker's, Hendrick's. I know people are snobby about tonic water, but I head for the diet variety and save myself the calories. What? I'm a Philistine.
ReplyDeleteHugs to you, hunny bunny.
I'm a sangria girl. Can't ever lose with sangria.
ReplyDeleteGo snuggle your pups - they'll help you feel right again!
I hear ya about life-lists.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, I haven't written in about 3 weeks, so you haven't missed anything from my parts.
I hope this means no homework this weekend?
I love Granville Island Maple Cream Ale, or vodka cran for the really warm days!!!!
xo lady
Jack & coke, tied with gin & tonic. Go have a tall, icy glass of either (or both), and take all the time you need to find your balance. We'll be here when you get back.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite summer cocktail is a mojito, hands down! :) Enjoy your time away, and marking all as read is often the best thing a person can do for themselves. Rest up! <3
ReplyDeletehey, what kind of running shoes did you end up buying
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry to hear things aren't going so well lately <3 My fav. is a spicy caesar :) Feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteI just made one up that I am loving. Bourbon, lemonade, juice of 1/2 a lemon, and 6 rapsberries over ice. Amounts to be determined by how much booze you want to swill. ;) Hope things get back on track soon!
