Lady of Leisure

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket

Hi loves! And happy mid-week to you all!

More daydreaming today coming your way. I've finally gotten around to reading some books this summer at the beach house and I'm having a hard time putting the books down once the work week starts. Unfortunately there's little or no time to read during the week. Would love to be able to find some time to indulge in some reading over the next few days. Ah to be a lady of leisure.  One can dream, right? :)

Have a wonderful day, sweets!

xoxo

  2. Ahh you're right...to be a lady of leisure...We've been away but everything was so hectic. I've got books all over the place waiting to be picked up again. I try to read every night, even if it's only a page :)

  3. I hope you'll find time for a little reading during the week too. I feel so much better when I'm able to do that, one more worthy thing checked for the day. Have a beautiful Wednesday, Dawn! xo

  6. Of course, Dawn, but sometimes I am so tired that I only see the couch and a good glass of wine or some chocolate, bustedddddddd! But tomorrow I am going on a long vacation (yeeeeh, two weeks) and I plan to read on the beach...

  8. Amen sista... it's so hard to read during the week... for us, we're constantly distracted by tv, eating out, cocktails and the internet... which is sad! Keep dreaming girly, at least we have our weekends to put our nose in the books! Hope your week is going good. xoxo

  9. It's really great when you have time to read something in the peace, without rushing... I bet you'll find more time for some pretty reading material during this summer!:)
    Happy Wednesday darling!

  21. A lady of leisure sounds just about right at this moment. I'll join you in the daydream Dawn!

  22. I tend to be the type that when I pick up a book I can't put it back down! I have read books in the past week. As a a result my work has suffered! I have put myself on a reading-hiatus until I get through some big work projects...

  23. This is why you need to be on a beach vacay for longer than a weekend...so you can be a lady of leisure, of course.
