Day 4 - 104 -- A Mundane Day

It's been a rather slow day. Some laundry done and a batch of spaghetti sauce made. There were several small paperwork tasks that got done, too. So -- a rather boring quiet day. Its just been one of those days when one is occupied but nothing major seems to be involved. For some odd reason when this sort of day occurs, I can't help but feel guilty for not doing something important. Not certain what it is that I think needs to be done, but the mundane tasks of life don't seem to be it. All things needed to be done -- need clean clothes and linens, need something in the freezer to eat when I'm grading in the coming weeks, and need a semi-clean environment in which to live. Yet, even with that, I feel like I should have been doing something of note. Go figure.

Long ago there was a movie with an little ditty that covered this very topic -- little of note going on but not just sitting being lazy. The version from the movie is shared here. Three voices involved and only one of them known as a singer. Enjoy!
