How about a music mix?

Hey all–I’m back again!

Like so many of you, we’ve had a packed summer so far. Not necessarily with tons of obligations but lots of time to find the rhythm of summer and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere that lets us go off and have spontaneous adventures.

So, that’s my excuse for not being on here as often. I’d like to say I’m sorry, but…I’m really not. It’s been so nice to have some time off the computer. I’m on Instagram a lot, but other than documenting my day by a photo, not much salt + pine social media has been happening. Oops! (but again, not really. :))

Now that the sun has come out and it is above 70 degrees, the weather has finally confirmed that it is summertime and I have to admit that the computer seems even further away when that gorgeous scenery comes out. But I do sneak a peek at those blogs every so often…

I’ve had a bit of fun putting together the most random mix of music–a little old school stuff, a little pop, a little indie, a little r&b. (I’m going to make you click on it to find out the songs, though. I like the element of surprise.)

The tie that holds the songs together is that they are all fun. Hopefully you like the mix as much as we do! The songs are in definitely in popular rotation when the roller skates are laced up.

And yes, I’ve been roller skating this summer and totally having a blast. Don’t laugh!

Hope you are having a wonderful summer!

    How about we house-swap?! We’re dying a slow death here…far too hot even by our standards! And anyone who can rollerskate is a hero in my eyes.

    “All skaters, change direction!”

    I spent some great childhood times at the rollerskating rink!

    Glad to hear you’re having an awesome summer.

      The last time we went skating, I was so lucky that they didn’t announce that (although I kept waiting for it…)--I pictured a thundering herd coming at me because I can’t turn fast enough!

    Love this mix- listened to it twice last week! I hadn’t heard that Gwen Stefani song in years and forgot how much I love it. Glad you’re having such a wonderful summer :)

    Oh my goodness, I love that you’re roller skating! That’s the way to let your inner child out.
    I’m so glad you talked about the summer rhythm and how you’re enjoying it. I have been feeling summer’s pull and definitely need to enjoy it more; It will soon be over before we know it.
