Bikini tops and pajama bottoms

Summer has really begun to settle in now..

Meg had to leave by bus Thursday, and I miss her very much. Her visit was a wonderful way to kick off summer here in Holden Beach.

My days since her departure have been occupied with sleeping late, occasional trips to Shallotte to stock up at the library, watching films, and working evenings at The Scoop. Melissa and I have gotten to know our coworkers a bit, and they all are nice enough. I stay entertained sampling our wares and making fun of Drew's heavy Eastern North Carolina drawl.

As I write this, Lily lies curled up on my tummy, convinced she is not in my way. I haven't the heart to tell her otherwise.

I wish all of you the best wherever your summer takes you.
