Seven to 10 minutes.

Each day  after I race out of my office to get to my car, I drive seven to ten minutes to pick up our baby from day care and in that brief time I keep the windows rolled down and turn up the music as loud as I can. I zip through a few country roads to get to the place where my baby hangs out all day and in those few minutes, listening to whatever I can find on the radio {though the past few days have been commercials on every station!}, I feel sooo free and happy. Fresh air after being in a cool building all day is such a tonic for my psyche. 

I'm way out in the boonies so there's usually someone manning a ride-on mower as I drive along so I can smell grass and the gas smell from those mowers; it almost reminds of being on our boat in Tahoe since the smell of gas always makes me think of boating. More wind and freedom.

Then I speedwalk into the house to get that child and I feel even better than warm breezes in my hair and loud tunes could ever make me feel.

On that note, have a great weekend folks!
