Surprises

I mostly love surprises, especially the good ones.  Today when I first awoke, I felt lethargic, so I rolled over and went back to sleep.  Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but for me, it is.  I haven't been able to sleep in for months.  I can't remember the last time I rolled over and went back to sleep - just like that.  But today I did.  And it was 10:30 when the groomer called to confirm Chelsea's appt. for today.  "OMG.  Can we put that back 30 more minutes?"  "Yes." 

So, I got up at 10:30, had my coffee, got dressed and delivered Chelsea girl to her spa day - DJ went along for the ride.  Then we came home and started with the to-do list for the day.  Best of all, I mostly knocked out the list - except for the grocery shopping and the hair cut, the rest is pretty much done.

Sometimes it's just the simple everyday ordinary chores that can give us the most pleasure.  I didn't overdo it today, I just kept on ... did the bathrooms, vacuumed, trash out, unloading and reloading the dishwasher and washing machine, basic stuff than needed to be done. 

It felt good.
