Just Productive Enough

I had two appointments scheduled for today. I had a leg wax booked, with my counselling booked directly after. I had the thought that Brady and Wavy could come in with me and run a couple of little errands while I was in, since counselling takes an hour. I realized a couple of days ago, however, that counselling only started at 3, which means I definitely couldn’t take them with me, because the kids need someone home when they get out of school. As I was putting two and two together, I realized that meant I had to go alone, which makes parking a lot more fussy and stressful, and I wasn’t looking forward to it.

But as things would turn out, my counsellor got in touch yesterday and told me she was feeling under the weather, and we’d need to reschedule. Which worked out just perfect because not only would I not have to figure out hospital parking in a vehicle that doesn’t fit in the lot (we’re too tall for the parkade) but it also meant my one appointment would be done by 2:30!

Because of that change, Brady had arranged with a loving friend of ours to pick up some really nice quality pallets around 1:00. So it all worked out that we went in together, picked up pallets, some quick McDicks, and then I went to my wax.

I have been getting my legs and arms waxed for years. A confident 15 years on my legs. Maybe ten years for my arms. Regardless, it goes SO quick now! I was in and out in 20 minutes. It was almost too short, haha! I miss my waxing girl!

All in all, we got back to town with enough time to hit the post office before there was any risk of the kids beating us home. But of course, the parcel I’ve been waiting for was there, and it was right over the 3:00 break! Cmon, Hailey. Timing!

It was a successful day 💜 I really do love my counselling appointments. They’re pretty life giving, honestly. Validating. But the way my schedule opened up today was just perfect. Pallet pickup was going to be tomorrow, and now that we did it today, tomorrow is a HOME day. A REST day! I’m so excited to be home and crochet, listen to music, and plan the weekend ahead a little bit. It definitely doesn’t hurt to get organized!

I am very happy with how today turned out. Thank you Lord for the rain and fresh tingly legs.
