Dear Washington,Oh how I love you on a sunny summer day. Your beautiful lakes and awesome hiking trails become a craving for me from June to September.
But here we are in November. Rainy, windy and cold. Today you are not my favorite State.
There is a new dog park that I want to explore. There are outdoor pictures waiting to be taken. There is a baby who is beyond bored of being inside.
And then there is me. Its noon and I am still in my pajamas.
Days like this drown my motivation to do anything but nap or eat, two things not included on my to do list.
So I blame you Washington, for the fact that I am wasting time on my computer blogging instead of cleaning house, organizing junk or working on my editing. I'm telling Matthew on you.
