slow evening
enjoying the sound of rain
over the machines

after fun weekend
jump on chores and pantry plans
and actually rested

planning for fall
culling all the closets
and planning pantry

looking for rest
cleaning the floors
to gain calrity

giving in-
getting cat food he likes
so he will eat

running through the day

humming new worship music

life is okay

fun packed weekend
no chores for two days
finish a great book

dragging my butt home
comfort food and a movie
before turning in

Escape, Escape

late into the night
working on a great read
telling myself "stop"

early morning chores
trimmimg overgrown bush
cleaning the cat box

fitful night
watching the moon move
across the night sky

after the weekend-
living room has new floor space
bathroom fixtures gleam

early to rise
enjoying guilty pleasure
new "power rangers"

lazy morning
cat and I play hide and seek
before work

afternoon break
crossword puzzles to clear head

late in the fourth watch
listening to birdsong
before stirring

after the rain
enjoying the dripping water
before I rise

low key weekend
hanging out the my sister
and watching movies

waiting for rain
curling up with the cat
and escape fiction

all day long
trying to enter rest

long weekend
reading a whole book at once-
the life of riley
