Goddess

i woke up today

& my first thought was

i wonder what time it is

10:45

a glorious time to rise

on a day off

not my best sleep last night

but tonight will be so much better

let’s see…

no assignments due,

therapy later at 3:30,

lovely ~ i cannot wait

i am thinking avocado toast for breakfast

but first, my cafecito 

of course

this is my last bit of coffee left

mental note to buy some more later

i take my first sip

hmmm

no one makes coffee like i do

time to wash my face

apply the skincare

she is moisturized & ready for the rest of the day

spring cleaning

that sounds perfect for a day like today

it is windy out, but it feels so good

let’s open these windows

& let in that fresh air

i get a cardboard box

& begin throwing things in i no longer need

that pink silk robe she got me

i had been meaning to get rid of it, honestly

it is time

oh ~ this cheap airport pillow as well

time to give that away, too

old, rusted jewelry,

pens that no longer work,

these flowers are past their time,

but thank you for your lovely contributions to my home!

i just cannot deal with the smell anymore…

came across some bay leaves

i wrote wishes on last spring

oh heavens

one of them had her name on it

i wrote this when i was trying to convince myself

this was the relationship for me

i no longer hold that belief

thank heavens 

*trashed*

anything else?

that is it for now

filled the box to the brim

some items thrown away

others given away

but it is all gone to me

my home is clean 

i spent time not only decluttering

but wiping down as well

i need the energy in here to feel brand new

alright, that is over for now

therapy ~ check 

time for some self ~ care

unwinding with yummy food,

a comfort show,

& a video game

glorious 

some new skincare came in today

the new comes in when you let go of the old

i think to myself~

i cannot wait to use it tonight

5 o’clock turns 6

i text back a friend

6 o’clock turns 8

i make my way to my bed

i just want to get cozy & relax

8 o’clock turns 9

& for the first time all day

i realize what today is…

today marks 5 months

no way

did i, for the first time, almost forget my breakup anniversary?

sign of healing & growth, i say

i smile
