Nothing Much!

Ever get a phone call with the caller asking, "whatcha doing?"  Only to reply, "nothing much." Well, that's what the day brought after weather reports shared that a mid-April snowstorm was going to be the main topic of interest for the whole weekend.  So, my husband and I are not doing much!  I love "snow days," "pajama days" or any other lazy reason to do "nothing much."  

It's amazing how I need permission to not leave the house, to just catch up on things here and even write this post.  Life can sort of make a person crazy with all the chasing around that every day life calls us to. Of course, it all seems legitimate when we have errands, shopping, sick calls and various invites. 

It seems that we Americans value a pace of living that de-energizes us so badly.  I am at fault no differently than the next person.  A day like today gives me pause to slow down a little bit, to let go of some guilt for taking personal time, and even to pause to pray and meditate a bit more consciously, rather than at the last hour of the day. 

It's the middle of April and snowstorm Evelyn is blowing through but maybe that's a wonderful thing. 4-12 more inches are expected yet as her second round continues a bit later on.  I know Sunday is a day of rest but there's nothing wrong with beginning with Saturday!  It's great doing "nothing much" once in awhile and on a regular basis!  Thank you, Evelyn!
