One moment in time

I never thought I would find myself too busy socially, but I actually had to cancel tomorrow night. It's cold and my hibernating instincts are moving into high gear.

Besides volunteering in the afternoon at the school library, I have been out every night for a while and I am looking forward to just staying home.

And . . . vacuuming the apartment every single day, followed by a trip to the dumpster is taking its toll.  I never realized what a physical job it is to try and vacuum every square inch of my tiny apartment daily -- until now.

Tonight, though, was wonderful. I went to see The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) and it was so much fun. We participated. We laughed. We clapped. Time flew and five ladies said good-bye in a frigid parking lot before dispersing to various and sundry destinations. Going to plays is getting to be a habit with us. This was our second and we are planning on the next one in March.

Life is good. I don't feel like I am wasting a minute any more and that suits me just fine.
