Hoping this'll be a restful Saturday

It's Saturday but I have yet to determine if it's going to be a peaceful one. I need to work but I really don't feel much like it today. I woke up before 7a.m. and I'm still not sure how I feel about that. Groggy would be the one word I'd use to describe how I feel right this minute. I should work some today but I'm not really in the mood. I need to clean the house but again I'm not in the mood. I did manage to start a load of laundry but now I'm wondering why I started it when I don't feel like finishing it.

I spent the week rather irritated but something tells me that next week will be better. At least I hope that it will. I found out which class Theresa is in this year, and it's only a half day which means that she'll still have all her outside therapy on schedule. I also found out that our private OT is going to be her OT in the school this year! I'm loving that!

I have plans for the work week but I'm not sure that there going to pan out yet but I am sincerely hoping they do. I plan to spend every moment that I'm not occupied with something else writing. I have some new goals to meet that will help the fight to stay focused. I fully intend to replace my Rodeo with something that I can drive without panicking. I would love better gas mileage considering it only gets about fifteen miles to the gallon. I would also enjoy having a balance in my savings account again that was more than just enough to hold it open. In October I get to pay the actual light bill plus what is at this point a $200 overage, I really got to get a move on setting that money aside.

Well, sitting here complaining isn't going to accomplish anything so I guess I'll be going.

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.

Flash in the Pan Playing Along Still

The pages were bent and ragged from years of use, covers worn out from hands rubbing over them. There were bowls everywhere, the oven was still hot. She tasted it again, something wasn’t right. It was sweet, tangy but not right. What was missing? She scanned the room again to see. Onions maybe? No, but what could it be? She hit her head on the cabinet. A pepper that was it!
