It's Sunday morning, and today feels like it's going to be a good day. Maybe it's because I accomplished some cleaning yesterday. My big plan today is prepping Workweek Lunch Summer Corn Chowder. I haven't done any prep work yet, like chopping the onion or creating my own Cajun spice mix (it's not something I keep on hand), but I'm just going to take it one step at a time today.
I recently placed a large candle/melt order from From a Cabin Up North, and I'm so excited to receive all the yummy scents. The shop owner's descriptions of each scent are magical. It made me want to buy them all! But it got me excited about candles again, so I've been burning some at home (to make space for all the wonderful new ones). The new ones are traveling all the way from Fort St. James, Canada! It's so cool to discover new places on the map and imagine what life is like there.
I am beginning to realize that it's impossible to do everything all the time. Maybe I am more in tune with my creative side and spend more time writing, but that means less time working out. Or maybe I am more motivated to cook, but that means less time cleaning. There are only so many hours in the day. I wonder if more primitive societies didn't have this problem. Aside from fewer distractions (inventions + technology), they often worked together as a community to reach common goals. I wonder if that saved everyone time in the long run.
