Ciao, tutti!
This blog post is in response to Natalie Sisson's 10 Day Freedom Plan Blog Challenge Day 3
Have you been keeping up with my Blog Challenge I've gotten myself into ? Each day I receive an email describing the challenge of the day.
Day 1 we had to write about our 2 or 3 biggest roadblocks that prevent us from living our ideal life.
Day 2's task was to figure out our why. Why did we want to live a free-er lifestyle.
I received today's assignment earlier this morning, and I've been pondering it all day. See- I did admit to being the Queen of Procrastination. This one should have been easy, and yet I've put it off until now. It's 10:24 pm and I can't put it off anymore.
The challenge for Day 3 is to describe my perfect day- from waking up to going to bed. What am I doing, what does it look, feel, smell. Really, I got this.
Ok, here goes.
My morning always starts with a cup of hot tea. Decaf, black tea. In a mug handmade by a local potter. The mug is a blue color that reminds me of the sea.
I'm not a real early riser. 7:30 is my usual time to start the day. However, in my perfect day (yes, I'm tweaking a bit here), I'd be up and out of the house earlier. 6:30 maybe.
I take a walk on the beach, carrying the mug of tea with me.
I once owned a beach house that had a fantastic outdoor shower. I'd love to have that shower every morning.
Upon returning from my walk and shower, I make a nice late breakfast for Mike and myself. Fruit- my favorites are pineapple, melon or berries, and an omelet with cheese and fresh tomatoes or peppers, fresh squeezed orange juice and more tea. Coffee for him.
Most of the rest of the day is spent writing. In my perfect day I'd be working on that book I've started but haven't finished. And I'd be doing that writing in a spot I love to be in. Something that looks like the photo below. I'd be on that veranda, overlooking the sea.
I love the sounds of the sea. The water lapping, the fresh smell of the ocean water, the rustle of the sea breezes. It calms me, helps keep me grounded.
The evening meal would be some seafood, perhaps shrimp and clams. And ice cream for dessert. There would be some Frank Sinatra music playing somewhere, and candles on the veranda.
That would be a perfect day for me.
Since you're reading along with my daily blog challenges, I'm thinking it would be fun for you to join right in with me. Go ahead. What would your perfect day look like? Share it in the comments for me, please.
Can't wait to see what Day 4 will bring.
PS- While I did not make as much progress with the new blog as I had planned today, I did get some work done on it. After several hours of researching and demo-ing, I narrowed a theme down to two choices. Tomorrow I need to make a decision, get the theme (whichever it is) installed, and get at least some of the pages created.

Hi Karen,
This is so funny because my perfect day is waking up in Venice with fresh bread and an espresso waiting for me. Heaven!
