Spring Fever
It's hitting me hard. Please lower your expectations.
Spring in Florida is absolutely insane. It is just gorgeous. It’s what people move to Florida for.
It’s hot without being humid. The daily afternoon thunderstorms of summer haven’t started yet. The flowers haven’t been burned in the summer heat. It’s just beautiful.
Which is why I am completely useless right now.
Every night as I lay in bed trying to drift off to sleep, I make ridiculous promises to my tomorrow self.
Tomorrow, I will wake up early and write.
Tomorrow, I will pack a healthy lunch and actually eat it this time.
Tomorrow, I will finish that one project at work that has been hanging over my head.
Tomorrow, I will make that doctors appointment I’ve been meaning to make.
Tomorrow, I will go for a walk when I get home from work.
Tomorrow, I will fold that basket of laundry that’s been in my room for a week.
And then tomorrow comes and the sun shines and the birds sing and the flowers bloom and I think to myself, “I’ll do it tomorrow.”
GOSH DARN IT, YESTERDAY KATIE! GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER, WOMAN!
