a day out



Saturdays are for adventure and work and fun and catching up. This Saturday, I did a little of everything.

Taking care of my children was one thing. Then, I went with a friend to the temple and had a wonderful time, of course. Cleaning house was one thing I set aside a bit, but that's okay every once in awhile when you need a break. I took myself to the movies to see The Green Book and was pleasantly surprised. I had no idea what it was about, but it was showing when I could go matinee and still get luxury seating. I took my softest blanket too, so I squeezed every last bit of fun out of that outing. Then I visited one of my sisters-in-law to pick up a special surprise for someone not yet disclosed to the public. Then I got home. I was out all day from early until late. I am exhausted.

It's crazy how much you can pack into a day and still do more.

I proceeded to load the dryer and then the washer and laid out my pajamas. I am taking time to write right now instead of procrastinating, so I can have a nice sabbath. And then, I am going to take a bath with candles burning and wind so far down I hope to sleep for ten hours. I deserve to. My brain has been waking me up way before I am rested or even need to get up!

It was a happy, very good day.
