A day off?!
But I’m retired.
Isn’t every day a day off?
Days off were designed for work places ~
weren’t they?
A day off!
Busy in retirement ~
Housework and planning
taking my time and
I almost forgot to read!
It truly was a day off.
Errands done in minutes ~
A stroll along the lake........
a cosy coffee shop for
a hearty sandwich and
delicious creamy iced coffee.
And then I felt it ~
It really was a day off!
Time away from the twirling busy’s in my head
Just me, my book, my lunch and
the vibrant chatting of lunch goers.
“Street sign: Ho Hum Road & Easy Street.
In retirement, I look for days off.”
~ Mason Cooley, American aphorist
