TCOY Thursday

What do you do to take care of yourself? Do you need to recharge? How do you do it?!

TCOY = Take Care of Yourself. Sometimes I need a reminder to take care of myself. I get so wrapped up and stressed that I don't do anything for myself to calm down. I started TCOY when I actively used LiveJournal. I am amazed it still exists! I had a set list of things to include in my TCOY posts.

I welcome you to TCOY Summer Edition!

Book: I am currently reading "The Moon and More" by Sarah Dessen. The plot takes place in Colby, the fictional beach town of South (or North?) Carolina. As I haven't fully read the book, I cannot review it yet. But the story is that a girl is working for her family's beach property rental agency the summer before she goes to college. She meets someone making a documentary film and she starts to question her "permanent vacation" life. Dessen is one of my favorite authors. I like her writing style and that all her stories, while separate, all fall in the same universe. I think some of her characters find themselves in other books. This book is perfect right now because it is a summer/beach theme.

Music: I usually have a summer playlist. But right now, I'm totally digging on the original songs that were featured in Pitch Perfect. Titanium and Bulletproof are at the top of that so-called list.

Movie: I haven't seen any movies lately. The new Superman is coming out and I don't know if I'm seeing it. I will probably end up watching Dirty Dancing at some point before August. So, this category is a bit of a bust. So I'll throw in a random!

Food: Tomorrow, I head off to a weekend beach getaway with some girlfriends to celebrate our birthdays. My role is host, bartender, and chef! I will me making beach theme cupcakes, build your own nachos and hot dogs. As far as tasty beverages go, I am looking forward to piƱa coladas! 

Random: I love to do my nails. I may have a small, yet growing, addiction to fingernail polish. I am currently sporting Naughty Nautical by my favorite brand - Essie. It is a soft turquoise with a minuscule glitter shimmer. It is perfect for this time of year. 

How do you Take Care of Yourself?
