These are random musings of my life journey, the people, animals, places, and events which have woven, and continue to weave, a tapestry that is me. We all know there is no real destination, only the ongoing experiences which blend together, creating the trail. Each step gives a glimpse of what is to come, without allowing me to see the end result. It is exciting. I have a home base that is mine, that gives me a place to rest. This is it. This is where my heart is, no matter where I journey...................

Lackadaisical Day

I woke this morning with absolutely no energy. I felt as if I had been hooked up to an energy-removing machine all night long. I don't feel bad. I'm just tired. I slurped coffee all morning, ate, then ate some more, and I'm finally feeling kinda sorta normal. I don't know what was going on. I'd hoped to work outside part of today, but I don't think I feel like it. Maybe later.

The weather is gorgeous. Our high today should be around 78°, and there is a nice breeze, not a gale, to keep it from feeling too warm. I hope I will feel like getting outside to take advantage of it. I'm switching the order of things I'd planned for today, in hopes that it will allow me to still get most of it done.

My dogs have apparently caught my lack of energy. They are all zonked around me right now. I sat down after eating to let it digest and watch The View, and suddenly all five are snoozing on the floor by my feet or on the couch! They played a lot earlier, so I think they are fine, but it is funny that they are taking an early nap today. They are usually go-go-go active almost all morning, then slow down in the PM.

I have started switching out my summer/winter wardrobe, and I'm nearly done. I've also pulled out a number of things I haven't worn in a couple years which I will take to the thrift shop today. I'll do more culling as I go. It amazes me how clothes seem to multiply in the closet. And except for three or four items purchased at the thrift and a couple pair of new jeans, I haven't brought it on myself. Those dang clothes are "gettin' busy" in the dark of the closet, I swear!

I donno. Maybe I should just change my whole day plan and simply crawl into the hammock. What do you think?

  6. I would have been in the hammock, given a choice. I think the energy sucking machine was in my home as well.
