Hit publish on a Sunday evening Slice. Phew, in under the wire. Thank goodness for my stalwart standby – six word memoirs.
Before that – rose deeply sated from a Sunday afternoon to evening nap, lengthy and prolonged, a luxury rooted in self care.
Before that – imbibed in afternoon tea from the comfort of my kitchen – chocolate cherry croissant and steamy milk laden tea
Before that – popped into Shopper’s Drug Mart to pick up two dozen eggs, on sale via special offer via PC Optimum App. Eggs nestled in the back of my fridge to be used for baking – my turn for staff goody day in a couple of weeks.
Before that – a long drive home on the highway from the valley
Before that – treated myself to lunch in a small town bakery – toasted Turkey sandwich with salad along with house made raspberry lemonade.
Before that – joined a friend & colleague for a 10.5 km walk through a forested trail, laden with dripping moss.
Before that – zoomed along the highway Eastbound, 50 km to a quaint town nestled in the Fraser Valley.
Before that – had a steamy hot shower – hello morning! – getting the last vestiges of sleep out of my eye.
Before that – woke up prior to the alarm, fed kitties, scooped litter box
Before that – stayed up far too late into the wee hours of the morning – classic back-to-work insomnia. (at least I had a fun book to read – will suggest it to my Chick Lit book club, NOT to my public library book club where it surely would be met with a whiff of disdain.)
This is such a neat format! I love your word choice in this slice…so many luscious words!

Sounds as though you had a busy day. That last bit about the books and a group turning its collective noses up is disheartening.
