I&#8217;m fighting a nasty summer cold &#8212; sore throat, headache, body aches, and all the other great stuff that comes along with being sick, no matter the season. There&#8217;s something strange about being sick when the sun is shining for so many hours of the day; for a few hours you can forget your misery and overdo it instead of resting, confusing beautiful weather for good health. This was the story of the weekend: me trying to act energetic and healthy, then dropping like a fly at night.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0131\" href=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/496\/18620221239_3d9edcf1e3_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0131\" src=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/496\/18620221239_c2873318e4_h.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0131\" width=\"1063\" height=\"1600\" \/><\/a><a title=\"DSC_0132\" href=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/340\/18620225129_3aff7e5d49_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0132\" src=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/340\/18620225129_07acceff6e_h.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0132\" width=\"1063\" height=\"1600\" \/><\/a><a title=\"DSC_0138\" href=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/378\/18780133716_9df3a61d81_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0138\" src=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/378\/18780133716_a299e73bad_h.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0138\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1143\" \/><\/a><a title=\"DSC_0085\" href=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/369\/18808980291_4f5e010cd0_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0085\" src=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/369\/18808980291_35005e3738_h.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0085\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1143\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>But the boys and I managed to have a lot of fun, joining the Tower Grover farmer&#8217;s market on Saturday morning for the first time this season, where we ran into so many good friends it was like a surprise party! It was so good to socialize. Sometimes when Andrew travels I tend to keep to myself, which backfires. I am an extrovert and need adult conversation! My life depends on it and so does my attitude!<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"DSC_0073\" href=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/469\/18618592268_2afc176c7e_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0073\" src=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/469\/18618592268_37bc086319_h.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0073\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1143\" \/><\/a><a title=\"DSC_0071\" href=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/347\/18618655520_5d43ffeb52_s.jpg\" rel=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"DSC_0071\" src=\"http:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/347\/18618655520_4f775b27ce_h.jpg\" alt=\"DSC_0071\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1063\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>While out and about, we were invited to join friends for the baseball game Saturday afternoon, which we happily accepted. It was another great diversion and I was grateful for the plans. We left a bit early for early bath and bedtime, and I finally watched <em>Wild<\/em>, which I loved (though I cried on at least five separate occasions throughout &#8212; it really got to me!). Check out the trailer below if you haven&#8217;t already seen it:<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MvDT42x_NBk\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow the boys start two different summer camps, so I get a few hours to myself in the mornings, which I have really missed. It goes without saying that we are having an amazing summer, but I miss having time to read. By the end of the day, I&#8217;m too exhausted to read more than five pages in a row! Looking forward to a bit of relaxing outside at a coffee shop with <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/book\/the-miniaturist\/id771725165?mt=11\" target=\"_blank\">this book<\/a>, which my dear friend Maggie lent me.
