Golden Slumbers

June 11th, 2010

I’ve never known how to sleep in.   It’s served me well the majority of the time since I’m usually up before my alarm, but waking up before it’s officially light outside has its disadvantages.  This past week has finally caught up to me and I can’t wait to relax in the form of morning naps (they’re acceptable when you don’t sleep in), grilling on our new barbecue and reading the magazines that I had bought for my plane rides.   Most of all, I’m happy to be back home with nothing planned for days.  Have a great weekend.

    Today was the first day I was able to sleep in. Now I’ve got a day of baking ahead of me. Nice to be able to relax!

    I just bought linen sheets for the first time and am looking forward to finding out if all the hype is true. I must say, they make my bed look like a professional photograph – the texture and weight of them is beautiful. White linen sheets in the sunlight . . . dreamy!

    I’ve been waking up early recently, too and just love it. I feel so much better and not at all groggy. Hope you enjoy your nice relaxing weekend! Having reading material and some sun sounds just perfect!

    I’m jealous. I sleep in way too much and miss half of the day…today I slept until 11 a.m.

    I feel so tires past days that I am dreaming to have a nice and long nap…but after that I have a strange feeling inside! So it is better to wait until night

    I’m so jealous. I wish I had a relaxing weekend for once but I’m moving overseas so have so much to plan. I haven’t slept well for days! I love the picture. I’m yearning for a day in 2 months time when I’m all settled in and can have coffee on my balcony! I’m having a giveaway if you’re interested! <3

    I hear you I am always up bright and early but naps do help. I feel like I can get everything done in the quite of the morning. Relax enjoy yourself.

    Up to this point I have been quite the opposite… I had NO problem sleeping in!! This year however, I am waking up early and be productive all day… someone said to me “welcome to adulthood!” I guess it’s about time since I’m turning 30 this year! :-)
    Cheers!

    Now I want a nap!

  • http://likefreshlaundry.com Natalie

    Wish I could get up early effortlessly! Mornings are not my friend. Have a great weekend.

  • http://sweatshirtdressshirt.blogspot.com/ SWEATshirtDRESSshirt

    i feel the same. i got done with my final exams yesterday, and woke up at 8:30 today for no reason. i was planning to sleep in until 11, but those plans fell through.

    i suppose waking up early automatically can never be a bad thing! like you said, morning naps are always an option, and even if you don’t feel like taking a nap, you have the whole day to do things! it always works out.

    I always have left over magazines from a long plane ride. True about the disadvantages of waking up before the alaram. Give it to yourself girl your on a hustler’s path and it looks golden to me.

  • Stephanie

    I love stress-free weekends too.

    Just wanted to say that I LOVE your blog (stumbled upon it this past year), and it has served as a very good distraction from law school studying.

    Also LOVE your bag- I look at it online every day, but alas, being a student means I cannot afford it!

    Oh maaaan, I love sleeping in.

    I also love having nothing planned for days (although I don’t really remember the last time that happened. Jealous!)

    Enjoy the down-time!

    There’s nothing like being back home in your own comfy bed! And naps are perfectly acceptable – take my 4 hour nap today, for instance – stayed up far too late last night!

  • http://www.b2cbags.com zoe

    yes, I can’t sleep well except on my own bed!
