Today was one of those fabulous days when there is nothing in a 24 hour period to worry about.
For me, this is saying something.
I keep trying to put this into words, but I'm afraid  of jinxing myself...
Today was a good day because I had been stressed out of my mind for most of the last four weeks and now everything is taken care of. Or at least to the best of my ability. And it all truly has been done to the best of my ability. Which is a satisfying feeling.
Work- caught up.
Grad school applications- completed and mailed.
My work day reached it's end and I was calm. It was nuts. I didn't stay late. Didn't come home stressed. Drove through rush hour traffic without a single thought of mass murder. Came home to Thai food take-out. Snugged up in a hoodie with my lover and watched a movie.
Perfect?
Why yes, it was.

Now, tomorrow is definitely a new day. Obviously.
But in this moment, I feel good.
I can sit down and breathe.
Work on this painting of mine.
Mess around with my awesome new jewelry tools.
Maybe pop some Ambien and drink tea, while laying on the heating pad in hopes of addressing all the tension in my upper back.

I am going to shop around the internets for some reading material.
And I need to Etsy it up a bit.
Pretty suggested that for Valentines Day, we get each other an Etsy gift under $50.
Done. Sold. Gotta love easy.
I'm not so much the Valnetine's Day type.
But I like presents. Especially of the stress-free variety.


End.
