I have accomplished much this afternoon
and
am finally able to relax
and
enjoy a bite to eat before a nice warm soak.
There were boxes of small items to be cleaned and sorted and inventoried and priced.
There was laundry to be washed, folded, hung, ironed and put away.
There was vacuuming to be done.
Dusting away some cobwebs.
There was the dishwasher to run and dishes to be replaced in the cupboards.
Just the ordinary household and work chores that we all have to cope with.
It's been a pleasant time of tidying and rearranging some pretties that I had been taking for granted.
I think I have a sweet little nest
and
am living the good life.
I enjoy refreshing my bookcase displays and counter top collections
and
organizing my closet
for the coming week.
Now
home made soup
and good bread
and
a cup of tea.
Time to pick up my book and nestle in with my late supper
and enjoy the beauty of all that has been accomplished.
I'm so easily pleased with small touches!
It's the little things in life, isn't it? That warm soak and cup of soup will be even better with all that you have accomplished today.
