slice #9

Yesterday afternoon I knew exactly what my Saturday would involve.  I was going to sleep in, catch up on laundry, straighten up messes leftover from the week, finish Hold Fast by Blue Balliett, & finish up a project creating a photo collage wall.  But, things didn't go as planned.

I woke up bright & early.  I only did one load of laundry.  I can still see the messes.  I didn't crack the cover of my book.  I don't see a hint of a photo collage wall.

What did I spend my day doing?  Since I was awake so early I was able to go eat breakfast with my husband before he went to work.  I don't know if that has ever happened on a Saturday before!  Up next was an unexpected lunch with my parents & grandmother.  Then, my sister & brother-in-law met us at my parents' house to tell us about their trip to Hawaii a few weeks ago, show us their pictures, & give us souvenirs.

So, no I didn't check anything off my to-do list, but I did spend precious time with some of the people I love most in this world.  I think I accomplished something worthwhile.
