There are some days that are so wrapped in perfection that you almost do not even realize they are here.
Sure, I woke up today unable to get out of bed in time to go to the gym. I cursed daylights savings time for wrecking my sleep pattern and made my coffee while feeding the dogs and cat.
I delved into work and it was a good day. Things went well. Progress was made. My boss was in a good mood and said encouraging words that reminded me I am good at what I do.
I had a great workout over the lunch hour. I felt strong.
Items were listed on CraigsList to sell. My sister brought me my work saddle and the hunt seat saddle I am buying from her.
We went to pick up items we purchased from a party and to the store.
When I returned home it was still nice. Sunny.
A benefit from that daylight savings I had been cursing just a few short hours ago.
I took the dogs, my fat kids, on a walk. We enjoyed the fresh air. We enjoyed the sun.
When we returned home I opted not to go to yoga in order to grill a filet a twice baked potato. Yes, on the grill. Where I didn't freeze. I stood outside in cropped running pants and hooded sweatshirt and grilled a steak to medium rare perfection.
It was so good.
I wiped down the kitchen, dusted the main floor and curled up on the couch to read a magazine, start a new book and watch some mindless TV.
Nothing major happened today. I didn't have anyone special to share it with.
In fact, you are probably wondering why I even wrote this post.
But I wrote it because nothing happened. Yet, on this day, I am happy. Content. Satisfied.
Oh, well it is great that you are content on your own living your life. I hope to be where you are every day, hopefully soon. I do have days like this now, just not every day. And I had a delicious filet for dinner too, in a chianti sauce. It was red-meat deliciousness.
