Tonight, we got to spend time with two separate couples, separately, who are friends of ours. And it was awesome. I went shopping with my friend and her daughter first – that got me out of the house in this cold weather after I read a while. That was running my errands but with the two of them. Then we went back to their house, and my man eventually joined. Both there and at the other friends’ house, I believe that my man and I both had a great time. We played with little kids and chatted and joked with our friends. We pet happy and loving dogs. We sat around a fire pit. We just hung out.
Tonight, I am going to bed (socially) satiated. And I haven’t really done that in a long while. It is a very good feeling, both physically and emotionally.
The irony is that I didn’t exactly do a lot today, but I got to spend a lot of time with people I love and who, in their various ways, love me. And that made a simple day feel full in the best of ways.
Thank you, God, for such a lovely day. Please, keep us safe and help us to sleep well at night. Help us always to pursue and fulfill your will. In your name, I pray. Amen.
