Productivity

It's really gratifying when you feels like you've accomplished a lot in a weekend. When you've been productive over the weekend, you may not feel as rested and relaxed as Sunday evening winds down. However, I find easing back into the work week much easier when I know I've gotten a lot done. I love feeling productive! Today I celebrate with a brief list poem, all I have accomplished in the past two days.

Rockin' sabbath service 

with my old friend from the U

Catching up and laughing

until our faces turned to blue

Clean laundry and empty hamper

and my closet is full of clothes

A little reading and lots of writing

poetry and prose

Several walks with my dog

meals planned for the week

Lovely lunch with a dear friend

developing plans for our retreat

Got my eyebrows waxed

picked up a few gifts at the store

Exercised restraint while shopping

and didn't spend anymore

Watched a documentary

and a little Triple D* 

Checked in on the b-ball scores

before catching a few z's

Took my son out for breakfast

enjoyed some conversation

Helped him with some school work

combatting procrastination

Took a trip to Publix

stocked the house with eats

Prepared my son some dinner**

took a few minutes off my feet

Back into the kitchen 

just a few more things to do

Made dinner with my husband

and made tomorrow night's too!

Now I'm resting on the couch

wishing the sun wouldn't set

Cuz even though my chores are done 

I'm not ready for Monday yet!
