A Sunny Day

It's a double-edged sword, a bright, sunny day. The sun streams in and it brightens up the room, making everything look so pretty. The butter yellow dining room walls, the sage and thyme growing in the window... Oh! What's that on the floor? Dust? Didn't I just clean the floors last weekend? Why oh why! must every little flaw shine so brightly, so proudly, in the sunlight?!

I was perfectly content at dawn. A strong cup of coffee with Creme Brulee creamer, the morning news program on, the pups on their big pink fuzzy pillow in front of the fire. The beginning of a new day. I will continue on with my to-do list. Which project to work on? I went to my list, checked off a few projects that I took care of earlier this week, and looked for an easy one to work on.

I resolved to empty my roll top desk, weed through its contents, discard much, and replace in an orderly fashion. It feels great to put a big check mark next to another achievement. I'm in no hurry to begin a job search so I better stay on it!
