10:13am- My cousins were here for a week and left 2 days ago. Went swimming every day that they were here. It feels odd to swim the human way so I swam with my legs together as if they were already a tail. My legs also felt like they were stinging a bit in the water while my cousins didn't complain about any odd feeling. Got a bit sunburnt when we took the boat out to go tubing, gotta love summer heat 🙄.
Mom and I then went home the same day they left since we had a bridal shower to go to and a potluck hosted by a neighbor. The shower was more like a practice wedding, even the bride's dress could've been a wedding dress on its own. It even got way too loud at times to the point that i had to step away for a bit (there's a volume where the music stops sounding like music and they reached it). Only had 2 hours to relax before the potluck; then yesterday I had to get service done on my car, pick up my Indian attire, see my herbalist and get my bff's bday gift+deliver it and then drive back to the LH. I was so exhausted that I laid in bed around 5:45pm and stayed there till morning. I've been at the LH for a month and will be officially returning home on Sunday.
The night time, especially by the lake with the water going, really feels like home. I also nolonger understand the point of setting off fireworks for the 4th of July. I get that people want to celebrate independence from England but maybe use an eco-friendly alternative rather than explosives that could easily start fires and unalive creatures of various kind.
