i wish....

i wish i had

a long post today

filled with glittery magical words

borrowed from a fairy

that you could tuck into your heart

and

carry with you until your head sinks into your down filled pillow tonight

but i don't

~

i wish i had

the energy to do all the things that need to get done today

but as i sit here typing

i've decided

everything can wait

that nothing is that important

today

~

well almost everything

~

there's a cool breeze blowing in my window

that's been absent for weeks

as

we've been suffering from the kind of humidity where particles floating in the air

actually stick to your body

so

today

i think it only fair

that if the only thing that gets checked off my

"don't really want to do it ever"

list

is maybe

oh

let's say

cleaning one toilet

while the rest of my day is spent with my hair blowing in the wind

while i close my eyes

and

soak up the sounds of the birds that sound happier than they did a few days ago

well

then

that would be a perfect day

wouldn't it

the photo above has nothing to do with today, but everything to do with the past 2 weeks while my sister and her family have been visiting. i got this shot after my nephew had finished showing me some of his mad skateboarding tricks and i just loved how he looked all sweaty and adorable.
