My thoughts released; a mind set free |
|
These pages contain my thoughts, from meandering ideas and persuasions to deep cerebrations and serious mentations. Why, for what purpose? To release my mind and set creativity free. Somewhere inside the constraints of my mind dwells a writer, a poet, an artist who paints with words. In here, I release those constraints and set the artist free. Perhaps, lost somewhere in the depths of thought, is a story or a poem, waiting to be written. |
| I really didn't have anything planned for today except for spending some time here. I have plenty of other things I can put some time into, but I just planned on winging it today. Starting out this morning, things were going according to my plans to not have plans. I slept in till almost ten, then spent a quiet, relaxing morning with my coffee, wife, and two dogs snoozing on my feet. So far, so good. Then it was time to make lunch; my wife volunteered me for that duty because she needed to start getting ready for work. I scanned the fridge to see what was available to use. In a few minutes, I had the fixings out to make tacos. I got the beef cooking while I prepped the veggies and got everything else ready. I had found some leftover bacon from yesterday in the fridge, so I chopped that up and added it to the beef, tossed in some onion and garlic, spices, and let it all cook together. We didn't have any taco shells on hand, but we did have some tortilla shells, so we had soft-shell tacos. After we ate, I was informed that we needed to fill up all our water bottles and pick up some milk, butter, and a few other items from the grocery store. But, since it was time for my wife to go to work, she didn't have time. So, she volunteered to give her a ride to work, stop at the store, and then come back to pick her up after work. I went out and got the vehicle out of the garage, put the empty water bottles inside, and took my wife to work. Then I went to the store and did my shopping, drove to the gas station and filled up the tank, and then drove back home and unloaded the vehicle. The guy who plows us out hadn't shown up yet, so I shoveled out in front of the house. We have about two inches of new snow. After, I was going to start dinner, but when I came in, my phone was ringing. It was my wife; she had forgotten her cell phone in the vehicle and needed it to clock in and out of work. So I loaded the dogs back up, and we drove back into town, dropped off her phone, then returned home. By this time, I didn't feel like cooking anything, so I've been snacking and spending my time in here. I guess it's a good thing I hadn't planned anything for today. |
