Saturday: Slow Simmer Start

I wasn’t extremely busy this week but I also haven’t had much energy except one day. I dog-sitted (dog-sat?) for my brother this week and thankfully Oakley has never been a problem. He’s an old man in a dog body and he is now an old man in an old dog body. The one day I had energy I tackled the my craft room and boy did I underestimate the task! I can usually do this in a day but it seems I am going to need at least 2-3 more days. I didn’t get to finish it during the week. I thought I may get to it this weekend. Today. But, I doubt it.

I have been simmering, so to speak, and sipping coffee, had my breakfast, watching some of my “watch later” videos and moving about the house. This morning has been slow and it’s almost noon. I have decided to just tidy up here and there. Do some yoga. Write this blog and one for my popular Sunday Coffee Musings blog. I will enjoy the outdoors on my porch for an hour. I am supposed to visit my dad today but, I saw him yesterday. I probably will not make it out there today or tomorrow. I believe he will understand. I know he would if he were himself. I did stop at the store yesterday to get him some pajama pants with a drawstring and some T-shirts. I feel guilty for not going every day like I have in the past but, I need time for me. The time I have fought for, still have to fight for, and probably will continue to carve out once he is back home.

So, on this simmering Saturday, I will just pittle and tinker. I will fix me something for lunch and dinner. I will watch a movie tonight. I may even organize my ideas, plans, for the year or Spring. Finally, make my post it notes of ideas and thoughts for the year and Spring. You know ones that stay all year and other quotes, thoughts, sayings that change through seasons and times. I don’t know. Don’t hold me to any of this. I am a Pisces who can change with the winds. Ha!
