Monday, coffee and quiet time. Thinking about my weekend.
It was a great weekend.
Friday evening was basically snuggle time with Big Daddy. A good ribeye cooked in butter and garlic cloves and a major pile of broccoli. Couldn’t do much after that meal but snuggle.
Saturday I had friends come by for a girls day. We watched movies, drank screwdrivers, made sliders and sundaes with whipped cream, sprinkles and moonshine cherries.
We were all in our jammies with blankets on the couch. Just enjoying each others company. It reminded me of Saturday morning cartoons after a slumber party when I was a little girl. Straight OJ back then of course.
Sunday brunch and Sam’s shopping then back home to snuggle up again. Maddie and I had Troy pinned in his corner of the couch. Each of us had a side with hand and paw meeting halfway.
They are the best snuggle buddies.
In between time here and there, I did laundry. Decluttered my kitchen countertops and dusted because, well, Oklahoma.
It was amazing how decluttering something I see every day made such a difference in my outlook for the weekend. I am not OCD, but the neatness, open space and brightness made me feel more focused. More in control and less chaotic. I had more energy. It was as though the messy countertops drained me each time I walked by.
I wonder how my better it will get if I continue with the rest of the house. Maybe a bag a day. Fill a trash bag for donation or dump each day. Could take 5 minutes or an hour.
I need to work on that.
Maybe do the same in my brain. My thoughts, feelings, emotions the works. Start tossing some out, organizing others for daily use and storing some for later. Writing them down here helps.
I am collecting my past writing to compile into some sort of book.
Going back and reading some of my thoughts has me wondering what about them attracts readers. One person commented one day my post should go viral. That would be awesome. That many people sharing my thoughts.
Wow just wow.
Now THAT would make my day.
Back to my weekend, boy I ramble….
It was almost perfect.
I had to reschedule a birthday celebration with my oldest grandson, his life is busier than mine. I’m glad it is. We will have our day.
Now Monday reminds me I have a busy week of caterings at work. A late night here and there, then helping a friend with his cater this weekend.
So my last gulp of coffee and off to work.
Have a blessed, uncluttered week my friends!
