This has been an odd sort of day. I'm not sure that I have even spoken all day. Maybe a rhetorical question here or there to the cat or dog. Are you hungry? Do you want to go out? Do you want to come in? I don't think I had any phone calls either. Well, one. But I'm not counting that since it was just a recorded political message.
I got up this morning, took a shower, put on make-up, styled my hair and picked out an outfit to wear. Then I sat down at my desk and began to tackle the summer's worth of paperwork and mail that has been accumulating since early June. And there I sat all day and into the evening. Just now, as I was taking off the make-up and changing out of the outfit I was wearing, I wondered why I had even bothered with all that. What was the point? Habit, I guess.
Thank God for online banking, automated bill paying and Quicken! But even they don't help with all that mail! I don't know why I feel obligated to open everything and at least look at it, even what I know is junk mail that I'll be throwing away. The wastebasket is overflowing. There's just a small pile on my desk to sort and prioritize tomorrow. It will feel good to be caught up again. Until the next time.
