Yesterday it was cold and rainy all day. Which I loved because it gave me permission to stay home and do nothing. When it was time to take my son to his spend the night at 4pm, I realized I was still in my pajamas.
My daughter went to her grandparents’ house to sleep over too, so my husband and I got a date night. We planned to go out, but with the weather we decided to order in. It was nice. Just what I needed.
I also cancelled on helping out at the dojo. I told them I had a sore throat, which was only partly untrue. I did have a bit of a sore throat, but I’ve had a sore throat for weeks now and nothing’s really come of it. I honestly didn’t feel bad about it. They had plenty of volunteers and I really needed to stay home. So I did.
Sunday the weather was beautiful and I went for a run. I also got some shit done. The weekend ended up being just what I needed: a day to stay home and hibernate, and a day to get some stuff done.
I’m definitely feeling grateful.
Let’s hope this week follows suit. 😉
HURRAH! And the rain was so lovely. Still very cold where I am but not of course compared to a mid-western or real northern state. SO glad you had time for peace and renewal.
CHEERS and good wishes for this week at work.
