Monday, monday...

DH and I had a great weekend, if you ask me! We actually managed to clean up from Eli & Miryam’s sheva b’rachot before the one-week mark, and nearly all the laundry in the house is done. We finally got around to doing our taxes (don’t worry, we previously filed an extension), only to find out that instead of $2,000, we’re only getting back $200 (love you, too, Uncle Sam)!

But I have to say, the highlight of the weekend for me was our 2 ½ hour walk on Shabbat. It was a beautiful day out, and owing to our over-packed schedule the week previous, we slept right through to Kiddush. We had lunch at home and headed out for a leisurely walk around the neighborhood. Window shopping is a beautiful thing, and in our neighborhood, there’s always interesting stuff in the shop windows. We walked over 2 miles, but since we hadn’t had time to just meander around like that for months, it was quite enjoyable! I didn’t even realize until I journaled after Shabbat that I had earned 3 activity points in the process! Just goes to show that taking time to enjoy the simple pleasures- a sunny day, eclectic shop windows, and the love of my husband- can be rewarding in more ways that you can imagine!
