fizzle

So, I was so totally going to get a gourmet coffee today. I planned my route so that I would swing by the coffee shop last thing on my way home. I walked to two different markets and got everything I needed. Tasks accomplished, I turned my steps toward the coffee shop. But as I drew nearer, I realized I was so hot that coffee didn't sound good anymore. Sure, I know they had iced drinks. I chose to ignore that fact, figuring I didn't need the calories anyway.

The day started off so well. So productive. Up early, to breakfast with the Mr. Answered some e-mails and went on my grocery "run" (walk) that didn't end with coffee. Then I did Zumba for about half an hour. I have a full hour workout video, but only made it half way through. I guess that's what you get for taking a whole month off. Blah. Then I showered. That was all before 10 am.

Then I sat down for some devotions. And promptly fell asleep. Again. And again. Guess I should have had that coffee after all. I kept jerking myself awake, but after I'd read a few verses, I would drift off again. I finally gave up at 11:30, but I felt defeated and disappointed. So, what did I do? Played a video game. That helped. (yeah, right.) Made lunch, watched some TV.

By about 1 I decided I had wasted enough time and got to work on some graphic design layout. But I kept the TV on. I know I work so much more slowly when I watch TV. So, I got stuff done, but not as much as I could have.

I feel somewhat disappointed by the day, even though I also made supper and took it over to share with friends. It wasn't a waste, but I had higher expectations. Sometimes my expectations get me in trouble.

Besides that, the cat slept all day. Curled up on our bed. She was so cute, I just didn't have the heart to disturb her. Hope we don't pay for it tonight.
