The weather men lied.
They all said today was going to be sunshiny, warm, and carefree. Instead those of us in southside Virginia were greeted with cold, wind, and gloom. Lovely, no?
But as always, we make the best of it. There is nothing quite like a clear, chilly day to remind us to move a little slower. To take time: to make a decadent breakfast instead of running through the drive-thru; to not rush through the morning routines of hair and make-up; and to stretch it out while playing fetch with the cat.
So really, I'm kind of glad the weather fella fibbed.
Right now, going slowly means plowing through a piece of writing that's been nagging at me for weeks. I've put it off, and put it off, wanting it to hurry up and write itself! The truth, however, is that the work won't write itself. Even if it could- it would be in no hurry to do so.
In the end, I am here to do the work that only I can do.
But first, coffee.
What kind of things remind you to take your time? Have a lovely weekend, dearies!
