Lakewood Ranch, Florida

After sleeping for nearly 9 hours, today I woke up and felt mostly refreshed. I’m torn on this - sleep longer or push the body. Body at rest stays at rest, sort of thing. 

We planned on heading to the beach, but decided to stay home, swim/hot tub and fire up the grill for dinner. Ripley joined in the fun as well. She absolutely loves swimming, but if she’s not retrieving something from the water, she barks while trying to bite the splashes from her doggy paddle. We found an easy but laborious fix - toss in the girls Barbie dolls over and over and over again. 

Ripley was in bed and sleeping by 8 PM.
