Today’s prompt: Describe your perfect Mori day.
On a perfect day, I would roll out of bed early. It would be warm enough to open the windows and hear the birds chirping while I sat down to a nice cup of coffee and a simple breakfast. I could linger over my food and read a few chapters of a good novel.
Once I was fully awake, I’d put on some exercise gear and take a long walk around the neighborhood or along the river, listening to podcasts and enjoying the weather. Then I’d come home for a warm shower. As I picked out a cozy outfit, I’d remember to wear one of my favorite woodsy scents.
I’d eat lunch with a friend, relaxing over a good conversation. After that, I’d browse through a bookstore or an antique store for a while. Late in the afternoon I’d head home, stopping on the way for some fresh veggies for that night’s dinner. I’d cook something hearty, a nice stew or curry, and call Robot and the kids to dinner. After that we might play a board game.
Late in the evening, we’d all read a classic novel together for half an hour or so before sending the kids off to bed. I would stay up for another hour or two, knitting and watching a spooky movie or a couple episodes of a favorite show. Then I’d snuggle up in bed for a good night’s sleep.
Such a perfect day is pretty rare, but I try to fit a few elements into every day. And we really do read classic novels as a family.
