Sunday Evening

Early morning chores, working together most of the day beside Emery, as he put up a half wall and gate in the milking barn. There was a gentle cooling breeze all morning long, then the heat arrived with a vengeance, forcing us to take time off and be inside a bit. We would so love to have a day of doing nothing, a real day of rest but since Emery works 6 days a week, Sunday is his only day to get things done around the place.
By 9 pm we were finished with the work. A long COOL shower felt so good. Candles burned in the window, music played softly. The perfect end to what seemed like a very long hot day.
We had easy meals, tuna sandwiches for lunch, cereal for breakfast, watermelon for a treat and Taco Bell for our evening meal. No stressing out over what to eat, there was too much work today to obsess over it.
Sleep will come easy tonight, that kind of sleep that restores you to full energy.
