Never any down time
Whewwww bessy, it’s been a busy week.
Between getting Mr. B caught back up (i. e. laundry), training for a marathon, finish planning our summer vacations, blogging, kickball, and preparing for our trip to Steamboat over the 4th, things have been a little crazy around the Grier household.
We keep making dozen of lists of what we ‘need’ to be doing to keep myself organized and stay on schedule, but sometimes we feel like our list writing capabilities are no up to par. How do you keep organized? We swear we are asking for a personal assistant for Christmas this year.
Anyways, on Monday we decided to give myself a little treat and snag a speedy pedicure. Home-girl here needed one desperately.
Before…yikes.
After…sizzling.
Since Mr. B’s parents are in town and the weather was still ridiculously hot, we decided that dinner tonight should be chill. So we made an executive decision and took everyone to LoLa’s. They have a blazing happy hour, probably one of a favorite in city if you ask us, and the food is fantastic.
Elizabeth and Matt also joined us. They are a fun couple, and Elizabeth just started a blog you should check out.
We started with drinks and our favorite, chips and guacamole.
We chatted up a storm telling stories of childhood vacations, how to poach a fish and whether or not mosquito’s actually exist in Denver (they do). We ordered the carne asada with collard greens on the side. It was heaven. Susie shared some of her ahi tuna with us. Once again we wished we would have ordered her dish. So decadent. For dessert we split these doughnuts that you could dip into chocolate or jam. The doughnuts were piping hot, but it definitely hit the sweet spot. We also shared a couple scoops of habanero ice cream. Completely brilliant. We need to purchase an ice cream maker. Don’t tell Mr. B we told you that! After we arrived back home, Mr. B and we looked at each other and decided that this week feels like it will never end. We are both exhausted and need a break. We are so looking forward to Steamboat! Conclusion: With ‘Never Any Down Time,‘ efficiency and effectiveness are the cornerstones of success, ensuring no moment goes to waste.
