Restless
Here I sit.
Big Daddy has a class tonight.
Little is at a soccer game.
Big is at rehearsal.
I fed the livestock.
I changed my clothes without issue.
I put some supper on.
I wanted to go for a walk, but my lazy bone has healed from its recent bout of activity, so I turned on the TV instead.
I turned off the TV.
I picked up a book.
I put it down.
I turned on the vacuum. I turned it off.
I put in a load of laundry.
I lit some candles. Cinnamon.
There’s a chicken package left in the trash. I take out the trash before it starts to stink.
I come back in from the garage and stand in the middle of the kitchen.
I scratch my head.
I look around.
I went out on the deck.
I watered the dogs.
I emptied cigar butts out of the ash tray.
I came back in.
I perused iTunes.
I put on a pot of coffee.
I read a few blogs.
I tried to call a friend. Voice mail.
I hung up.
I walked out the front door and to the end of the drive.
I stand there.
Heavy sigh.
I walk back.
Here I sit.
…some days, ya know?
