The universe is good at leveling moods.

I found a new favorite place to read.
The ancient pontoon boat is usually the family library of sorts. Each of us goes out there separately during the summer when we have a free afternoon to read, so that's been my standby for years. I sit right at the front of the boat, in the single chair towards the bow, so I can rest my feet on the gate that supposedly keeps you from falling off when we're moving. It was kind of cold today, though, and my normal spot was shady. The jetski, however, was basking in the sun and I got jealous of it so I transferred. It's perfect. There's enough room to lay down if I wanted to and it rocks around with the waves just enough.
The world is a gorgeous place, you know. All you have to do is look.
