The thrill of the list


I’m positively giddy.

Thinking about next week makes me smile.

I’m not sure how or when I did it

but I actually scheduled some time off

and for the first time in forever,

I FORGOT to fill it up!

It must have been a week I mentally skipped,

but now I have time to get my haircut,

catch up on laundry and my paperwork,

And I’m ECSTATIC!

I remember when planning a vacation or a trip

filled me with joy,

but the older I get

the more excited I am

about getting my chores done.

Does this mean my interests are changing,

or just that it’s nice to have an empty to-do list?

(Not that it’s ever got nothing on it, but still!)

Tomorrow is Friday and then my fun begins!

Can’t wait to do housework and my have-to list.

TGIF!
