My goal for today was to relax and enjoy my life. I put away my “To do” list and did whatever I felt like doing. I did do some of the things that were on the list, but only because I felt like it.
I raked leaves so the kids could jump in them. I went to a fabric store and looked at costume dress patterns. I took the kids to Walmart to buy new leaf rakes. (ours had attacked trees so often that they had no prongs left.) I watched a DVD. I answered some email. I shipped a couple of orders. I made pancakes for dinner. And now I am blogging. I am calmer, happier, and more relaxed today than I have been for a very long time.
In my opinion, “costume” dresses are the best ones out there. I keep buying patterns of them for my husband to make for me.
Good for you for relaxing. We all need days where we don’t *have* to do things (even if it’s just how we perceive it, because you did accomplish good things). It sounds like it was a good day.
Glad to hear you’re managing to do the “relaxing” thing (OK, raking leaves isn’t all that relaxing…). While obviously you have to work in order to earn money and so on, there’s no merit in working so hard that life’s never any fun.
and glad to hear you (plural) liked the card. She’s done a really evil hallowe’en one now 🙂
