Time to make the donuts

Anybody remember the commercial from the 80s about the dunkin donuts guy? Here is a reminder just in case:



This gentleman's enthusiasm for having to get up and make the donuts is about how I felt today regarding my responsibilities. There was cleaning, laundry, dishes, bills, grocery shopping, coupon clipping, cats needs to be met, excercising to fit in, and more. Doesn't it sometimes seem like we just keep doing it all over and over again. I know that is part of life but it seemed like all day today each time I was getting through all those things I NEEDed to do rather than the things I WANTED to do I just kept hearing this guy saying "time to make the donuts"

But then, if you notice at the end of the commercial, he turns to see all the customers smiling happy faces and he knows that getting up to make those fresh donuts each day is actually worth it. As I sit here finally relaxing in front of my computer I look around at my finished laundry, vacummed room, cleaner house and I notice I am enjoying my full tummy from a good meal and a body that feels invigorated from a workout, I know it was all worth it. So I guess tomorrow I will get up and make some more donuts - or something like it ;-)
