Early Bird...

This morning I managed to get myself out of the house 10 minutes early -- something I have been wanting to do for a while now, because I have been wanting to try out the little coffee shop that sits nearby where I wait for the shuttle to the Metro station. I got there this morning with plenty of time to spare. Asked the girl which tea she would recommend -- I thought she had said "gray" so I got it, but it turned out to be green tea. No worries, I like green tea; I just don't think of it as a first-thing-in-the-morning tea. Nonetheless, having a nice cup of tea was a fun start to my morning!

I'm wearing a new dress in my favorite color, and I'm loving it.

The weather is gorgeous, and I had brief conversations with 2-3 different people this morning about just how lovely it is outside! When the weather is nice, I'm a happier gal. I had lunch outside yesterday, and I have been getting off the train a stop earlier -- I only do this when it's nice outside!

Also, last night I attended the first of a series of 4 classes (of which I will miss the last one due to vacation) on how to make invitations and cards. It's really more of a class on stamps, or so I learned last night. Nonetheless, I had a lot of fun and really enjoyed the company of the other ladies in the class -- one of them even gave me a hug on the way out!

It's been a great few days, and I have been in high spirits!
And I'm supposed to meet up tomorrow with a friend I haven't seen in a while, and we are going to "play makeup" (as I like to say) and maybe work on a potential wedding look!

TGIF!
