Saturday Start

Good morning, Amanda.

I usually force myself to stay in bed until 8 on Saturdays (and end up sleeping until 8:30 or so, and then not always feeling great), but today I woke up feeling great a little earlier than that. I had a migraine yesterday and was exhausted pretty much all day yesterday so when I finally went to bed, I had a great night’s sleep. Sometimes I don’t want to get up because my bed feels so good; today I wanted to get up because I felt restored.

I don’t have big plans for the weekend other than to really get my place in order. Once again things (I?) have gotten a bit disorganized, I’m behind with laundry, and I have bought a few things lately to bring a touch of spring inside so this is my weekend get everything clean and in its place. I was doing so well there for a while through the holidays, and then I just stopped trying. Ugh. As I often conclude, I should entertain more often. In fact, I should probably invite someone over for dinner tomorrow for that extra bit of motivation.

Actually, this time around I think I have that extra push in place without having a dinner party. My extra motivation to clean both upstairs and down is that I’m going to call management on Monday about some new stains I noticed on my ceiling from all the snow that sat on the roof and melted and leaked in I guess, which means I could have visitors. Before I get going, I’m giving myself some Me Time for coffee, blogs and a little TV. And some cinnamon raisin toast, which now that I’ve mentioned it, can’t wait any longer to have it.

I didn’t hear from you this week, so if it was a bad week, I hope you have a better weekend; if it was a busy week, I hope you have a restful one.

Love you,
Barb
