Reprieve

I was supposed to work a baseball game this afternoon, but learned shortly before the final bell that the field had a scheduling conflict and our game had been changed from a home game to an away game.

I went to the hardware store and picked up a few items that I had been intending to work on at home. Came home and fixed an electrical circuit, replaced the lights in the microwave oven and put new bulbs in an exterior motion light that had been out all winter.

Finding that I'm not expected to work on an afternoon I had planned to work is one of lifes simple pleasures. It is indeed a reprieve.
