Recharging the Battery

posted Saturday October 3rd, 2009

We made it to the girls’ ballet classes this morning, and they are now — several hours later — in the bath. And that’s it for productivity. The house is a mess, my projects undone or not done. I don’t even have the energy to get the Halloween decorations out.

True, I think I actually slept a total of three hours this week. I wrote a 4500 story yesterday morning (I’m not saying it’s a good 4500 story, but a story nonetheless) and capped the day with the art show my paper sponsored (more on that later, it was super) and when I got home at midnight, I couldn’t sleep.

Today’s a different story. I did grab a cat nap this afternoon, but I could go for another right now, and it’s not even dinner time. With the flu looming, I can rationalize the laziness by saying we all need to rest up and protect ourselves. But the truth is that it’s simply a lazy Saturday.

I think the girls can use one, too. At least, that’s my rationalization and I’m sticking to it.

  1. Um you also went to Michael’s, Ruby Tuesday, haircut for Sophie , an afternoon bbq and other things I’m sure you didn’t mention in passing to me. “Lazy”??? More like “in denial”!!! Rest, woman! And I can’t wait to read your story!

  2. Ok maybe I’m a day off…but still. I stick by my basic premise! :P
