Taking care of me (finally)
Permalink  

Both kids are out of the house today- happy with friends. The laundry was taken care of earlier in the week. The house is clean enough for today. Ordering pizza for dinner. A whole day just for me!! I worked on my art... something I haven't had the desire or inspiration to touch in almost two months. I turned on my music and totally concentrated on the canvas in front of me. It was so wonderful! In comes AH... "you sure had a lazy day today." 

Nope! A day doing just what I wanted, when I wanted, I accomplished SO much... a day spent on me is not wasted!
