Good tired

Do you know the difference between good tired and bad tired?

Good tired comes at the end of a day where we feel like we used the day well, in whatever we did.  Maybe it was work.  Maybe it was play.  Maybe we volunteered.  Or mowed the lawn.  Or cleaned out the garage. 

Bad tired, for me, is the result of frustration.  Or anger.  Or irritation.

Tonight I am good tired.  I did a LOT of music today.  Played the service at Christ Lutheran Church.  Attended worship service at Cape Cod Church.  Worked two hours as rehearsal accompanist for the Falmouth Theater Guild.  Then back to Cape Cod Church for Christmas Choir rehearsal, asked to step in as alto section leader since the regular leader was sick (poor dear...wishing her FAST recovery.)  

That was a whole lot of music.  And church.  And time at the piano.

And tonight, I am good tired.  A day WELL spent. Working together with a whole bunch of wonderful people, who added so much to my time.

Now, I go to sleep with the sound of a gentle late October rain.  

Thank you, God, for blessing me in the simple things.  AND in the big things.
