I did something this morning that I haven't done
for months. I sat down at the bakery with a
coffee and made lists. This used to be something
I did several times a week, but this year has been
different. With our new schedule (and changes to
our bakery), I haven't been indulging.
What I find I miss, more than pastries, and more
than coffee I didn't have to brew, is the ability
to sit, think, and make lists. At home, there is
just too much distraction. There is always some
thing to be done, and in jumping from activity
to activity I don't sit and organize. So, today
was an organizing type of morning. A good way
to start the day.
And not a moment too late. Tomorrow is the first day
of December, which means the advent stockings must
be filled today and hung tonight. The count down
begins.
