Breathing Room
Sighing on this Saturday morning, in no hurry to get out of the cool sheets, laughing with the baby between us, hot pancakes and sausage and little rivers of buttery maple syrup….
- yesterday was a rough, rough day. David resigned from one job (which will end Wednesday), hunted around for a repair shop to take his car (no-go on the weekend), our offer on the house was accepted (yippee!), we worked in grocery shopping between hustle and bustle and heavy traffic, and somewhere in there I just broke. It wasn’t the sum of lots of little things but a snap in the tension I think. On few hours of sleep I’d just reached my max.
- homemade Margaritas on the porch swing after dark was a soothing, summertime way to wrap it all up. Icey coolness and evening breeze and quiet chat: a chance to sigh and let down the guard.
- Today we finish the signatures on the house contract and CHILL OUT.
