Mellow Yellow

I'm feeling pretty mellow this afternoon. I love Sunday afternoons when everything has turned out well on Sunday morning and I am just home from church and the whole afternoon stretches out before me. There is so much potential for a Sunday afternoon. Its the kind of day when anything is possible.

Today I watched Harry Potter with my kids. It doesn't actually sound like a big deal but it was lovely to sit there and relax and watch something without making any effort at all. Towards the end of the movie I put the roast in the oven and pealed fresh veggies from the garden for our supper. Yes it is work but the prospect of a lovely meal lays before us and that adds to rather than detracts from the potentiality of a great day. Mellow? Yes I am mellow.

Being mellow is more wonderful if you are in sink with everything around you. I look outside and just overnight I can see a visible difference in the trees. There is this lovely mellow yellow in the forest that wasn't there yesterday. Even though the temperatures are so nicely mild the trees continue their undressing as leaves that have already turned drop to the ground in the dance of autumn. The skies overhead are soft blue with smokey clouds that drift slowly from horizon to horizon. It is a day to be content.
