burning out

When i got out of bed this morning - it was warm.

Sometimes i don't appreciate things, until they're back and i realised how much i'd missed them.

Warmth in the morning. I got out of bed in the singlet top i'd worn to sleep. And it was warm still.

The sun was shining by the time we left the house.

When all the kids were dropped off - i had my Thursday - alone. In the warmth and the sunshine.

The music came on. The house got it's catch up clean up. The clothes were folded put away - more washed and hung out. 

I vacuumed - i mopped. I skipped from room to room. 

I twirled and danced and grinned at my flowers.

Grinned for no reason.

Laughed like a crazy person because - it was a beautiful day. 

The storm clouds came in later on - the kids came home - between dinner and showers and bedtime - the day became lost.

I wasn't going to write anything tonight, but a day like today should be remembered,

I'd almost forgotten - how happy i was - just to be alone. To be quiet. Just to be me for a while. Even while cleaning up.

ALl that energy though- it's been burning out.

It's time to rest - there's fun to be had tomorrow.

Today, i am thankful - for blue skies, warm air, cool breezes. For childcare/preschools/schools. 

For Harvey Specter. Haha... on the recommendation by Averil and Vinnie - loving 'SUITS'.

That's all for now :)

Check these kids out
