One of those days...

I wake up this morning. Don't get up. Just wake up. As I lay there, I criticize myself for always being late. "Just get up now and you won't be late. You are awake, may as well get up! You can make coffee and start the day off right."

UUGHH....I roll out of bed.

As I stand in my bathroom looking at my huge fro, my soggy eyes and frown on my face, I say out loud, "I just want to get home already!"

*sound of screeching brakes*

Wait! I AM home! But I guess thinking about the entire day in front of me makes me dread it already....bummer.

I continue with my morning and get ready for the day ahead. In the bedroom, the entire back wall is windows. The view of acreage, trees and shrubs are always amazing. It's as if it were a movie and all the little animals are coming in on cue. A bright red cardinal flies in from the right and lands on the branch in front of the window....I look towards the upper left and a blue jay is jumping from limb to limb. As I admire the intricate colors on his feathers, something catches the corner of my eye. I turn to see two little squirrels wrestling....WOW! What a great place! It's my own little piece of heaven.
I sigh.


As I walk towards the closet, I grunt. "I have nothing to wear", I think to myself. AHH..jeans! Jeans it is!

As I think of the day before me, I grumble. Well, at least it is Friday and this crazy week is almost behind me.

As I step out to the porch a bunch of little birds that were pecking in the front yard fly off in unison. I smile. As I walk to my car, I hear, tap,tap-tap,tap, I look up and see a woodpecker. Could this morning get ANY better?!?!

I get in my car and get on the road. As I turn onto the highway, the signs of Spring are everywhere. There are lots of horse ranches that sprawl throughout. Colts. Baby cows. Baby sheep. Even a baby miniature horse...ever seen that?!?! Amazing!

"Now if it could just be 2:30 already so I can be heading home."

Today is not a bad day...just one of those days that all I want to do is be home and it can't come fast enough!!!

Hope you all are having a wonderful day. The weekend is going to be gorgeous...maybe I will tend to a few of the dozen gardens in my yard!!! *she smiles gratefully*
