It Started With Brunch...

Guess who took last week off? Your's truly.

With the exception of two classes on Monday, a writing project and a few calls to some clients, I basically did nothing last week, but partied. I don't feel guilty, because I needed to get out of the house and I have not taken the time to have fun in forever.

It started out on Saturday with brunch.

My girlfriend and I went to brunch on Saturday morning and ended at a block party where I met some great people, clicked wine glasses and ate junk. I got home at 2am.

Block Party: Amazing peeps!

On Sunday, I screamed my lungs to death at a Euro Cup final game party, even though Italy was dominated...I had fun. We took the party to the pool, and I got home at 1am.

I took a break from fun on Monday and Tuesday to go to class and work on a writing project. My July 4th was spent relaxing at home in the morning and off to celebrate Independence Day with some friends. The night was complete with food, drinks, dance, laughter, fireworks and dance. I got home at almost 2am.

I did nothing, yes, not a thing on Thursday (I watched the movie Get Smart. On Friday, I headed out to the International Club DC All-White Summer Soiree networking event and danced the night away to a latin jazz band on the Embassy Row rooftop. I got home at...wait for it...4am! (Cover face) lol!

White Night in Havana

Saturday was spent with my sister and her husband, he watched a basket-ball game while my sister and I watched Something New and The Best Man. We knew almost all the lines, which indicated that we needed to get a life. :) I also got to shop in her wardrobe. I scored some treasures, I am super excited to wear the stuff especially a super duper ballroom dress that I could not afford without her. My sister and mom have always had expensive and good taste; I am the anomaly. I got the vintage piece below from her and wore it to church last night.

A necklace I shopped from my sister's collection.

My July 4th week aftermath has me with a few things to catch up on including writing projects, blogging and job search. I have met some really nice and cool people, but work is beckoning. I am actually back on schedule today, thus the week off was a good thing. ;)

I hope you all had a wonderful 4th of July celebration and weekend.
I did!

Beloved, You are Loved Absolutely!
