Sometimes you have to step off the treadmill – road – pathway – of your daily life. All sorts of things can require this: health, family, work, emergency. And then you have to get back into the daily rut.
I’ve done this from Sunday until yesterday. On top of everything, I came down with a 100.3+ F temperature, which is high for me. Misery compounded!
Today, do-nothing-I-don’t-need-to-do day! Slept in. Coffee. Shopping for tonight’s dinner (Roasted Mushroom Steak Soup with Baby Spinach and Kale). Nap. Coffee. Chocolate. Wash wool.
It’s working. Fever is gone and feeling like my old self.
And in a bit I may go outdoors and enjoy the brisk spring winds. Or do something else.
Simple things in life are the best!


Glad you are better! And that soup looks wonderful.
Thanks, Katherine! And it smells good, too. An hour and 17 minutes from now, dinner!
Congratulations on giving yourself a day off!
Thanks, Anne! It’s been great!
Get well and take time for yourself.
Thank you! I did and am now finished power washing my patio! Cleaned up plants and moved pots and did a bunch of fun gardening stuff. Yay!
