What a Life!

Yesterday, I parked myself at home all day. I needed a day of piddling so I could just get some things done once. The things I needed to do in town can just wait.

I did the laundry. In fact, this morning, I’m washing the sheets. That’s the one load that often gets neglected.

I cleared off the desk and made a small pile of things that need to be done – like putting the temporary insurance cards in the new car. Today I will reconcile the accounts and pay bills (something I normally do weekly but hasn’t been done since I wrecked the car – no worry, everything was paid on time).

I’ve downloaded the pictures from my camera – almost 300 of them – and I’ve taken more since then. There are some good ones I intend to post, but I have not had a chance to go through them yet. One thing at a time…

When Joey wakes up from his morning nap, we will go for a walk. The weather has been beautiful – it’s time I get out and enjoy it some more.

And my new piano…oh! I am so enjoying my new piano. I loved the sound and the touch when I played it in the store. I love it even more now that it is in my living room. It’s just marvelous! The more I play, the more it comes back to me – I’m better at remembering what key I’m playing in and doing the reaches without looking. And the touch…I love the touch of this piano. My fingers fly over the keys and play those fast little notes clearly and effortlessly. It is so amazing! I get tears in my eyes just thinking about it. Grandma would be so proud of the joy this piano is bringing into our home!

I think today will be another day for “piddling” at home. My soul is refreshed, but it’s asking for more…
