Just Sittin' Here

I love the end of the day. Especially the getting in bed part. But sitting here is good too.

even with a sugar headache - from the bread and jam I just medicated myself with to get over the day (doesn't take much for a sugar rush these days)

even with an almost clean, but still annoyingly messy kitchen

even with my nose dripping - from the arrival of spring allergy season

even with a to-do list a mile and a half long, nagging me mercilessly

even though I know Luke will be expecting me to whir into him within an hour

even though my teeth feel gross and I sooo want to scrub them

But I am too tired to move and am enjoying the golden silence for a moment.

I love that feeling. I like it in the morning when I'm in the office with the blinds open about 630 and watching the sun come up. And it's quite and calm with everyone sleeping, it's the best part of my day! I pass out to early at night to really get to enjoy the evening.
