My sweet hubby is back in town after several days away for work and I could not be more thrilled. I consider myself a pretty independent person and I have no problem traveling alone. Sitting at home alone when he leaves is a different story though and I can announce with certainty that I am not really cut out for that. I enjoy my alone time as much as the next guy…but that all day every day alone stuff ain’t for me.

We spent our Sunday catching up and ran out for a quick shoot and a working lunch date. Our “quick shoot” turned into a long drive trying to avoid the rain, only to have it catch up to us mid-shoot. We knew it was going to rain but we just had to try! Then it started pouring and we got stuck under a nearby awning. We thought for a minute that our shoot was a complete disaster but N kept snapping while I laughed about how silly I looked and how my hair was somehow getting progressively bigger and flatter at the same time.

We ended up deciding there was no way we could wait the rain out and called it, but we managed to snap a couple pics of this look. And I was so glad I had the perfect crossbody to stash the camera when I booked it to the car! I’ve been loving this little bag for lunch dates because it perfectly fits all the little things I need (little planner, a journal, my wallet, my phone, and my keys). And I learned this weekend that it can contain my entire DSLR (even with my wallet and phone)!

We ended up canceling our lunch date and going home to make our favorite soup and cuddle on the couch. Every time I cancel plans or have plans canceled, I’m reminded of John Mulaney’s bit about canceled plans: “In terms of like, instant relief, canceling plans is like heroin.” I couldn’t agree more. There’s just something so gratifying about canceling a plan and suddenly having nothing to do.
