totally

restless

 

 

With that feeling

like I'm supposed to be doing

something...

just not sure what that

something

is.

 

antsy

 

With Thanksgiving

right around the corner

shouldn't I be

planning

ordering

cleaning

in preparation?

 

I throw a load in the wash

until the

feeling passes.

 

uneasy

 

A list is composing in my head

of what I

could be doing

rather than nothing...

finish that knitting

start creating

more cleaning (like I said)

complete that reading

decide on paint...begin painting

sweep

dust.

 

Nah...I don't wanna do any of that.

 

Swished the duster about

so I wouldn't feel like

a complete

loser.

 

 

 

Did I mention my boys

declared yesterday a holiday?

 

Didn't you know?

 

The newest Call of Duty

was released

at midnight...an annual event

that has them waiting in lines

at midnight (thanks cousin Jeff)

and playing until the wee

hours

only to resume play after a quick

nap.

 

Homeschool is forgiving

like that.

 

So with a day off you would

think I could be clever.

 

 

 the opposite

 

 

 

the boring television

the messy house

the upcoming (real) holiday

the abandoned craft room

 

all left me feeling

uninspired...

 

what to do, what to do...

 

oh...

how I wish I could embrace

this fidgety child

within.

 

 

Constantly sensing

I was forgetting something.

 

We did go visit

Grandpa...

so I have that going for me.

 

When I remember what

it was...

 

an appointment perhaps?

a bill due?

 

I will let you know.

Unfortunately

as of this posting

I have no idea what

it is.

 

I will say I finally found a bit of

comfort in the kitchen.

 

Where I sipped on some Roma

and made a most fabulous dinner.

 

Sauteed Mushrooms with Honey Miso

Baked Tofu

 

Pan Fried Brussel Sprouts

 

Olive Oil and Garlic Couscous

 

Warm Crusty Bread

 

Sangria

 

Sure the Roma was great

but the Sangria made

all

the difference.

 

 

Today is a new day.

I will rejoice and be glad in it.
