Happy Day

after 2 weeks of rainy days (great for studying) we are now in the midst of a heatwave. all i've been able to do at home is sit in front of the swamp cooler with my feet up, drinking iced herbal tea and eating copious amounts of watermelon. (... doesn't sound that bad, actually ;)) but really, today is the first time i have some energy because the temps went down to 30 something and the breeze feels a bit cool.

the grades i got so far have been good; i'm very happy about that as my brain is not working 100% these days. i'm just more interested in getting a good baby wrap than the economic situation in central eastern europe :)

i've been doing some bike riding with my big belly. i read the only concern is falling off*, so i am really careful and go very slow :) but i really enj
oy it so plan to do it for as long as i can. we've been to a few festivals as well.

here's the card i made today:
the inspiration is from this week's tuesday trigger at moxie fab world. i used a bunch of scraps, the rub-ons and bubble letters are rayher, the brad is kaiser. i was going to do some sewing on it, but thought it was enough as is.

thanks for looking, and hope you're staying cool in your part of the world!


*funny thing is that the boy ran into a pole last time we were out. hahaha...
