Let the dogs out; (listen for Holly to yelp at the back door) let the dogs in. Repeat this several times per day. Tidy the kitchen and wash a load of dishes. Feed the dogs (after listening for Holly's whimper, "feed me, feed me"). Make my own lunch (hmmm ... did I do that or did I miss that again?). Do a load of laundry (even though Marg does most of it on the weekend). Most important, read for awhile and have a nap. Finally, make supper (tonight, a pork roast with potatoes and assorted greenery). I enjoy my routines. Happiness is ...
Routines allow us to do the things we really want by giving us the satisfaction we have accomplished something necessary in our life.
