another day.

Started off the day waking up early then going back to bed. I love that feeling. It was still dark. Woke up the second time opened the blinds and sun. Surpised. A list of things to do so no time to waste. Let's see ... another coat of mud, clean the kitchen, pick up the house, laundry, weed some more, mow the lawn, jumpstart Oliver and drive him around the block then give him a bath. And other little stuff.

After picking up and cleaning the house a bit it was time to head outside to jump Oliver and give him a ride around the block (he'd been sitting for a couple of months). Did. It was fun - I do love that little car. Fifteen minutes later after getting back I gave him a bath then went to move him afterwards - but the battery it turned out did not hold a charge. Assuming it was dead after testing it with a voltmeter I headed out to get him a new one. Put me off a bit, but all in a day's work. He's running just fine now.

And a day's work I had. And it felt good. I love weekend days like this to myself just spent working not relaxing it nice enough outside to actually open the kitchen window over the sink for a bit. Sun most of the day then clouds winding the day down. Mowed part of the lawn and started wrapping up as it clouded over, turning my attention to things inside like finishing up the laundry. Lit a candle. Put on some Moby ('Blue Paper' from Hotel Ambient on repeat sorta quiet) and just enjoyed the fact of having spent the day being productive. Not necessarily working on my house this day but still working on things. It is a good feeling. Did not get to everything but it's okay. I still have my list.

I am so looking forward to warm weather and more days like this. Productive.
