Indifferent Shrug

My day has felt 

like a shrug.

Not bad, just--shrug.

I read more

than I thought I would.

I cleaned less 

than I thought I would.

I thought about 

organizing.

And organized 

nothing.

I sheltered in place 

for a tornado warning.

It was short, 

no damage.

I watched two episodes 

of a show.

I ate good meals.

not fancy.

I talked to my mom

three times.

I let the dogs out 

a dozen times.

I got groceries, 

just a pickup.

I hydrated.

I sat.

I napped.

I sliced.

Shrug.

  1. We all have days like this. I love how you captured the mundane-ness of the day in such a clever, descriptive way. I especially loved these lines: "I read more/than I thought I would./I cleaned less /than I thought I would./I thought about /organizing./And organized /nothing." That about sums up my day!

  2. Sometimes the most ordinary day is the just right day. With some editing turn the shrug into a hug.
