  I didn't have time couldn't chose not to go to the gym in favour of something that, considering it was raining, seemed far more enticing.
I went to the tanning salon instead and enjoyed that bone-deep warm feeling for a full seven minutes. That may not sound like much but it was enough of a boost to make the rather grey weather seem not so miserable. After arriving home I went through the usual ritual of starting up a fresh pot of java and then hubby and I went outside for a smoke.
In an effort to escape the rain being blown directly into the only sheltered area in our back yard, we went around the side of the house. Evidence that we don't venture around there too often? A hornets nest the size of a softball on steroids. Yep, and hubby was standing right underneath it. Being 6ft 3in tall he was literally 4 inches away from having the nasty little beasts sitting right on his head.
I'm going to try and get a picture of the house-on-our-house later when we venture out with the giant can of urlLink Bug-B-Gone we just picked up at the hardware store.
