Day's End

Every day has one.

Some days close and I feel a deep sense of satisfaction.

Today - not so much.

It was a full day.

Got to work early, did all I could and learned a few things.

Did some planning, reading and cleaning.

Food shopping.

Shared a quiet evening with my husband.

Even as I write, a sense of quiet satisfaction grows;

Though the day to day toils don't seem to be

"producing"

what I might hope for, long for.

There is a satisfaction in the doing.

And in being close to those I love.

Frustrations. Finances. Shortcomings.

At day's end today, I'm fighting the negatives.

And hoping for a good night's sleep.
