I look at the clock and wonder where my Saturday went. I slept in this morning; it was much need after the first week back from vacation and pretty much every night I was up until at least 10:30. I sat at the breakfast table talking and reading with my husband; a weekend ritual we both enjoy. We just made it to the library to return the movie and books that were due today. I went grocery shopping. I checked email. Now the day is over. I still have laundry to do, a stack of papers to correct, and lessons to prepare for next week.
But day light is lasting longer, the sun is stronger, the air a bit warmer. Spring is on its way, and with it the promise of warm afternoons on the back steps watching the birds, open windows, and flowers.
Your best paragraph is the last one! We sit on the back porch--our paradise--thanks for an idea.
ReplyDeleteyeah--I agree with Tam. I am waiting for it to be warm enough to move onto my front porch in the mornings. Still too cold here though. For now!
ReplyDeleteDays slip by so quickly, particularly weekends. I am looking forward to days with more sunlight. Somehow, I get more done in the daylight.
ReplyDeleteAnd here I sit thinking the same thing - where did my Saturday go...
