Cancerian fantasies

[saffronhare]

Even if you're gonna make fun of me, I'm gonna say it:


Today, I want to be the one who stays home. I hate missing bedtimes and being late for work if I linger to have breakfast with the little ones.

I love the Saturdays when I can spend the day with the kitchen door open, puttering and cleaning, chatting with kids running in and out with the dogs, making enormous platters of PB&J sandwiches. I actually enjoy washing the hardwood floors we worked so hard to expose.

I enjoy the rituals of doing laundry, the scent of clean sheets and the sight of plenty of clean socks. There's nothing quite like having my choice of fresh, fluffy towels.

I miss having the time to cook, even if I'm not very good at it. I miss being able to really binge on sewing -- which I am really good at. If I had the time to sew and a little bit of a budget, I wouldn't need to lust after purchased garb. I want to sew with laces and satins and silks and brocades, and...


Oh, poo. Time to suck it up, sister, and get back to work.
