This summer I did a few great things--
I tap danced.
I ate a lot.
I lost weight without even trying.
I cut my hair off and dyed it blonde and it's longer on the right side than on the left.
I flew back East for ten days and saw my family and swam in the lake.
I went to Boston and ate a salt bagel.
I touched the desk where Lousia May Alcott wrote Little Women.
I snuggled my kitties and laughed for hours and hours about them.
I was cast in a Big Important Role that somehow feels bigger and more important than other roles I've had.
I finally bought the green bathing suit I've been wanting for three years and a big floppy dock hat.
We secured a way to go to Europe next summer for a month.
In some ways it felt like I didn't even have a summer because I never stopped moving long enough to take it in and appreciate all the changes and growths and opportunities.
I am a lucky girl.
