Today was my first truly relaxing day in ages. Granted, last Sunday, I did nothing but sleep all day, but I felt like that was more recovering from the previous couple weeks and simultaneously saving up to survive the next couple weeks. Today felt different, mostly, I think, because I get three days in a row to relax. Granted, today probably wasn’t everyone’s idea of relaxing. I am at Daniel’s family’s house in Oklahoma right now. Last week was a very busy Monday and Tuesday, trying to get anything I needed to done at the office, and then very long days in Kansas City as I worked on all our projects at once. I put in 61 hours last week! So, it took awhile to shake off the feeling that I needed to work, but after that, really enjoyed not worrying about anything. I slept in until 9:30 or so, and didn’t get up until at least an hour later. Then Daniel went to help his dad with fixing a fence and I spent the afternoon making a robot shaped cake for his dad’s birthday. Like I said, not everyone would find that relaxing, but it was my first time baking in weeks (other than last night), and I found it therapeutic. Last night I made an apple crisp pizza, which was also awesome.
I was going to write more – but I am enjoying some wine, and watching Cars (Yes, Cars), so have lost my train of thought. 🙂
Enjoy Memorial weekend, everyone!
