SOLSC Day 14
Here it is, Wednesday, my one totally free day this week. Earlier this week I posted about how busy this week and next week would be. Today is the only day where I don’t have to be somewhere or do something.
If I get several days in a row that are free I usually like to work on a project. It could be something like cleaning out the garage, organizing my closet or workshop, or going out just to go out.
However, when a free day comes in the middle of a busy week I need to plan my day more judiciously. I don’t want to go anywhere because I will be out of the house every other day this week.
I don’t want to start a project because if I don’t finish it I can’t get back to it for another week and a half. At that point I might not feel like finishing it.
So, what are my options for today? Posting and commenting on TWT is a given, but what else?
Well, I could spend some time reading. I am down to the last 40 pages of Hellbent by Gregg Hurwitz.
We are out of sweets to go with our evening cup of tea so I could make some cookies. I do have a feeling that we will have some Czechoslovakian cookies before the day is over. Would have to put the cats behind closed doors for this because they like to help.
I could just surf the web. That, however, seems like a waste of time if there is nothing in particular that I am looking for.
I could cook us a good home cook meal since we did or will be eating out most days this week.
There are many things I can do with this free day. Maybe I’ll just take the day as it comes and do whatever strikes my fancy at the moment. I find that relaxing.
The madness begins again tomorrow.
Free days are awesome! The madness never goes away – enjoy today
Thank you. Should be a relaxing day.
Your thought process and rationale here are so aligned with how many of us make these decisions. Enjoy today, in all the ways you spend it.
Thank you, Aileen. Whatever the day brings will be fine by me.
Love the free days and decide in the moment what I want to do. Enjoy your day!
It is nice not to have plans.
No plans, no problem! You have so many options and each one brings a different kind of joy. So enjoy all your activity or non-activity today.
Thank you. I will.
Love all the possibilities a free day holds. So much potential. Even just to sit and think and make a delicious list like this one. Fun to read!
Sometimes having a list and saying I’m doing noting today is freeing. However, I did get some cookies made.
And here I was thinking pie for pi day sweetness. Enjoy a leisurely pace today for sure!!!
I am not a pi(e) maker. Never could make a good crust.
Sometimes, on days like that, I think of all the things I could do, but do none of them. And that is OK.
Definitely OK.
Cookies with tea – perfect. Nothing else needed, except,well, maybe a book. I hope you had the most wonderful Wednesday.
Cookies are in the oven so they will be all set for tea this evening. Good book is never far away.
Free gas are the best! Enjoy!
That’s free days! Ugh! Auto correct.
I know, auto correct is a pain!
I’m all for free gas as well 🙂
I always enjoy figuring out the possibilities for a free day as well. I do hope you baked some cookies, as those sound delicious. All too often, I end up frittering away a chunk of my time on the Internet and usually wish I’d done something different!
Cookies are made. It was a nice relaxing day.
I trust you have enjoyed your “free day” …. wondering if the cookies got baked or the home-cooked meal made… I baked a blueberry pie, totally unplanned.
Cookies got baked and are ready for a cup of tea in a bit. It was a nice relaxing day. Now I can go for the next two.
“Maybe I’ll just take the day as it comes and do whatever strikes my fancy at the moment” Always sounds like a good plan to me.
It is one I can live with. Thanks, Raivenne.
