A short and sweet journal entry for this second day of 2015.
I feel like I have been running a marathon the last few months and I have finally just STOPPED the world and GOT OFF for a few days!
I was in no hurry to get up this morning since Mother's hair appointment was cancelled due to the bad weather. Cold and rainy and Mother thought it best not to get out in it! Worked for me so I rolled over and went back to sleep. When I finally woke up around 10:00, I STILL didn't get up but read a little and played Scrabble and Words With Friends on my iPad.
Louis Dean and I spent a good part of the day in the den by the fireplace watching old TV shows!
As in REALLY old!! Quincy, Maverick, Gunsmoke......you get the idea.
Since it was such a chilly day - I made CHILI!!
Once again, we ate by the fire.
Between the fireplace and our comfy blankets, we have stayed warm and toasty.
I thought several times today about taking Lucy for a walk. Instead I just let her outside and she came right back in after she had done her business!
I love candles and burn them all year long. This one is a Nature's Wick Candle Summer gave me and I love the sound it makes while burning. It's kind of like a mini fireplace!
I have it on my side of the bed. With the candle burning and the back door cracked a bit to let in a little of the cold air - it is just THE perfect setting for propping up on the pillows and pulling the covers up and reading. Naturally the heated blanket is set on HIGH!
I love these deep pocket flannel sheets so I washed them and put them right back on today!
It's time to shower and put on a fresh flannel nightgown and think about going to bed.
With flannel sheets and a flannel nightgown - sometimes I stick like Velcro when I try to turn over!!
Life will start again soon. Perhaps I can get one more day of rest before it does!!
