Homestead

Feeling laid back and relaxed

Because I let my OCD out a couple days

Before and cleaner than usual.

Rubbing down my male cat,

Charcoal, who spend a lot of time alone,

But seems satisfied with just a few minutes

Of intense fur massage per day.

Watching a tv show while I play a video game.

An hour of yoga on the floor.

My female cat Millipede...

Tracking soil on the floor of my room.

Yet another pile of books that I am

Thinking about reading, but haven't really gotten to yet.

Making up another vegan concoction based on some omnivorous dish I am

Craving.

No questions about how many hot, caffeinated drinks I've had today.

Weird architectural features

That are not found in other buildings.

A lot more clothing and books than I need.

Driving myself insane trying to decide which one of my paintings I should

Work on next.

No alcoholic drinks, in the cabinet, in the fridge, and definitely not in my

Room.

Being sort of in love with my desk lamps, late at night when I am doing

Homework.

Long showers and warm nights because of the solar hot water panels on the

Roof.

Cutting multi-colored roses from my little rose bush out back.

Lining up my shoes in the most aesthetically pleasing way.

Napping during the day because I can't help it.

Playing with the hose and watering plants out front and in the side yard,

But not as often as I should.

One of my cats laying down on my abdomen while I am asleep, making me

Want to stay lying down and pushing my spine down to a better position.
