Creating 2015—Day 11:  A Whole Lot of Nothing

That’s what I want to do.  Nothing.  Or, “nada” as they say here in Mexico.  Uh-mazing Romantic Partner is already out with his golf clubs for the day with Best Friend Bride’s new husband.  In addition to his morning smiles, his energy and joie de vivre amaze me.  He’s such a zest for life doer.  Me?  Well, that brings me back to nada.  Which is what I want to do today.  I should be out exploring the ruins that are nearby.  A must-see, my cousin Pam told me.  Or, walking the beach, or out in one of the bazillion pools at this resort swimming.  But no, I’m happy sitting on my little patio listening to the ocean waves crash in the distance, chilling out. I think a nap and some room service are in my immediate future. Beyond that, who knows?

Doing a whole lot of nada.

Of course, I would love to chill out doing nada with Best Friend Bride!  I haven’t seen her since the wedding reception.  But, she really needs to do nothing today.  She has been at this beautiful sea side resort for almost a week and has yet to get a day by the beach to just chill out.  She’s going to try and make today that day.  I hope she succeeds!  Sometimes, we all need to do a whole lot of nothing, don’t you think? How else can we recharge our batteries?

Until tomorrow, create from what you have…time to do nada.
