Thankful Thursday

1.  I am way thankful today for Facebook this week.  Despite all the problems and hassles and social awkwardness that this technology can bring- it also brought me tons of birthday messages from all over the world.  The wall posts streaming in all day- really made my day!

2.  Time away.  As much as we are in love with our new house, D$ and I needed a break.  I found a great deal for a boutique hotel in Scottsdale, just 2 hours up the road.  (Seriously, if you want to stay nice for cheap, come to AZ in the summer- it's hot.  But I paid $50/night for a room that goes for $350/night in October.)  We didn't do anything, we just hung out and shopped and enjoyed free AC- but we both felt rejuvenated and reconnected after our weekend away.

3.  Books.  Every birthday gift I received was a book.  I love them, I can't get enough of them.  I devoured a book and a half this weekend.  I love to read books.

4.  Summer Deodorant.  From September- mid-June I wear Dove deodorant everyday and it works well enough for me.  However, in 105 degree heat, you need a bit more.  So every summer I switch to Mitchum- so powerful you can skip a day.  For real.  You can.  This used to be my every day deodorant,  but I learned you can develop basically an immunity to it, so I now just use it in the summer or when I need something so powerful I can skip a day!
