When I woke up this morning, I looked at the clock and thought, “The Capitol 10,000 runners are just about finishing up.” I imagined them sweaty and smiling an endorphin soaked high. I did not long to be there although I have enjoyed those group runs. No, I was content to enjoy my Sunday lie-in with my animals who hog the pillow.

to some, it is sloth
for me, much needed self care
luxurious rest
