My first Saturday off in a months, I was looking forward to some R&R or L&L, leisure and laziness, with sleeping in being the first order of business.  Here’s how it went:

• Woke to son’s smiling face, announcing, “Good morning!  It’s 7 am.”
• Checked e-mail and twitter
• Sent a few messages while drinking coffee and chatting with sister-in-law
• Did dishes
• Fed cat
• Showered
• Went on nature hike with husband and children
• Lunched out with husband and children
• Came home and while husband napped, picked up miscellaneous items around the house:  jackets, books, water glasses, etc.
• Showered again
• Swept floor but resisted washing it
• Wiped down appliances and kitchen table
• Sent a few texts
• Called a few friends
• Cleaned daily paw and fingerprints off of glass doors
• Broke up fight between children and sent them back outside to play
• Sat on deck, leafing through Writers Digest Magazine
• Wrote three quick entries (25 words or less) for WD monthly writers prompt
• Wrote this blog
• Submitted entries online listed above to WD for your story
• Read a chapter of a book my friend wrote
• Had a glass of wine while deciding on what to make for dinner
• Marveled at my amazing ability to relax

Wishing you a day of R&R made your way!
