yeah

I would rather stay home

Inspiration is up again. I got a little lost there. Loss of productivity can be unavoidable. Somedays we have to do farm stuff. Errands. I hate errands. Going to town. Having lists. Trying to hit all the stores and remember everything we need. We always forget something. Meeting someone from Craigslist to buy feed or straw or equipment. Always awkward. I hate needing to be somewhere are at a specific time. Hurts my brain a bit.

My thought process.

I have to meet so and so at 4 pm. So we need to leave by 3 pm. We should probably shop first. An extra hour for the feed store, now 2 pm leave time. Oh wait we should do this other store too, but it is even farther into town. Ok, leave by 1 pm. Well if we are leaving at 1 pm maybe we leave at 12:30 and have lunch in town. Lunch in town is always fun.

Then you check the lists in the car. We need ten items for one place and five from another. Then there is the dreaded grocery shop. Maybe this is why I want to be a gardener. So I never have to go to the grocery store.

I do miss leisurely shopping. You know going to the craft store and just browsing. Or the book store. Or the office supply store. Swoon. I have been to two craft stores in the last few weeks. I can’t remember when I visited one before that. Maybe a year? I used to go to the craft store often.

I guess I don’t need leisurely shopping anymore. All I need is the animals and the garden. Give me some writing time and I am an extra happy girl.
