Per my March edition of What I’m Into where I mentioned the need for premium, April was dedicated extensively to putting that in my proverbial gas tank.  While this month has been a world wind of traveling and activities, I have come to the end revived and inspired for what’s to come.

First up, was a trip to my parents’ lakeside condo in Daytona Beach, Florida where we met up with my sister and her family (I met my nephew for the first time ever!). It was a family reunion of sorts and it was wonderful.  My BIL taught me how to play Dominos.  I think I surprised him by posing a bit of a challenge.  He had to step up his game to beat me; something I don’t think he was expecting.  Let’s be clear, he did ultimately beat me.

Then it was off to Vegas where I accompanied the Hubby on a business trip to the annual NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) Convention.  We got to stay at the Wynn, my favorite hotel on the strip on the 53^rd floor with views of the strip.  A lovely hot stone massage and room service on one day added quite a bit of premium into the tank.

To commemorate the entire vacation, I went to the local Kendra Scott boutique, and used the Color Bar to design a unique piece to wear to remind me to do the things that I need to do to stay sane. A huge thank you to Rebekah and Noel for their help. I wear it almost every day.

Inspired, I returned home determined to take some time to do the things that have been “niggling” at me to get done: cleaning out the garage, spring cleaning the ceiling fans and blinds, etc.  I am proud to say that I have made some real progress in that arena.  I finally purchased and installed a floating shelf (I had courted it for three years and the Hubby did help install it) in my son’s/guest bathroom and it looks absolutely amazing. It elevates the entire bathroom.  Once again, I don’t know why I don’t do these things right away? Three years for a $13 shelf!

April has been a very good month for me and I am excited to continue to grant myself permission to put premium in my tank in May.

I’m linking up with Leigh Kramer’s What I’m Into so check it out and see what others are up to as well as tell me how you are including some premium in your life.

enjoy life…
