Sweet Summer Days

Wow, what a surprise! A cheery “Hello from Houston” popped up in my email first thing this morning from two of my favorite people, Tammy and CJ Renzi. It’s always nice to hear from clients, but even more so when it’s unexpected and out of the blue with nothing more to say than how much they love their website. Honestly, it was such a pleasure to work with them, and their energy is truly contagious.

Me? I closed shop shortly after I finished their website and a couple of other projects I had been working on this year so I could take a much-needed break and focus on other creative stuff I’ve been wanting to do . . . and my writing.

It’s true to say, I’ve stopped to smell the flowers. I’ve been working a lot on my gardens, planting flowers and watching them bloom. The gardenia tree on our back patio is my pride and joy—its flowers send the most incredibly delicious scent thru the air. We especially like to sit outside after dark listening to the fountain on our pond—so soothing—feeling the thick summer night all around. Little moments like that make all the hard work worth it.

In other news . . . I wear a Fitbit to measure my steps. I spend way too much time sitting and log only about 5,000 a day, but I did log over 10,000 a day on a recent trip to NYC. So, that’s something. Last year I walked the 5K Race for the Cure, and hope to do it again this September.

Hope you all are enjoying the summer. I certainly am. But never fear, if you need me, I’m always only an email away.
