it’s beautiful out today, & i feel productive
it’s early spring
it’s bright skies & cherry blossoms & i’ve only had four hours of sleep so i feel productive;
today i am going to be productive,
today i am making my list,
today i am going to:
make the pancakes from that recipe i got last summer
make the bed for the first time in weeks
vacuum for the first time in over a week
go for the walk i’ve been waiting to go on
maybe coffee with a friend i haven’t seen in a year
mail these fifty letters
check the post box for the first time in over a month
pay last month’s bills
get groceries by myself: apples, bananas, bread, brocolli & quinoa
start painting one of these canvases i’ve had for weeks
finish the painting i started in december
paint my fingernails since my old polish has all chipped off
unload yesterday’s clean dishes
throw out yesterday’s stale tea
call my mother
go out for dinner — maybe that new restaurant down the street?
easter dinner?
try this lemon poppyseed loaf recipe i’ve been looking at for 2 weeks
have a little unscheduled bipolar breakdown
eat cold pancakes two hours late while i
cry into kleenex over old written words
…….
today i am going to stay home,
again.
