{shoulda - blogtoberfest day XXI}

I should have been preparing for a job interview tomorrow, 
or getting ready for the Buninyong Maker's Market on Saturday,
or writing an application for a board position with the Emerging Writer's Festival
or getting the house ready for the umpteenth open for inspection, 
or getting new things into my Etsy shop
or doing the grocery shopping 
or, or, or....

Unwind

Instead,
I poured myself a cold drink, 
kicked off my shoes, 
put some tunes on,
and lay in the sunshine with a magazine 
(that I didn't even bother reading), 
and boy did my soul thank me for it.

  11. Given the elusiveness of sunshine in Melbourne this October, it sounds like you made exactly the right call!! Sometimes you've just gotta do what you've just gotta do, especially when time out is calling :-)
