Here are some random and not so random thoughts on this Monday:
My head is beating like a drum today from a sinus headache. I'm home and going to take some of the over the counter sinus medication to try to get over it. My neck also aches and my rotator cuff strain is acting up. I'm going to check blogs between naps.
I had a good weekend--cozy and relaxing. The moon was awesome. But I get bad dreams whenever there is a full moon, which convinces me of it's pull on the tide within us.
I've enjoyed the relatively warm weather but a deep freeze is coming by the end of the week. Just in time for my real birthday on Jan. 17. Supposedly it was a warm day when I was born.
I would like to be well enough to make a meeting tonight. I'll have to make that decision later. There's a meeting close by that might be easier to reach tonight than the longer drive to my home group.
No one is home right now so I get some time to listen to the house "talk" around me. I can hear the squirrels running across the roof. And the ticking of the big old clock in the gathering room sounds like a metronome.
There are clean flannel sheets on the bed that I'm going to burrow in for a few hours. There is something about soft sheets in winter and the expensive high thread count ones in summer that make sleep peaceful.
See you tomorrow.
lol about your sheets... I totally get it! also, there is nothing like freshly shaved legs on clean sheets...lol doubt you could relate... just sayin
ReplyDeletefeel better... and the dog in the pic looks like my roo, is that your dog?

ReplyDelete...actually I'm not sure a rabbit is in the rodent family (I heard conflicting views on that).
feel good.............al-anon hugs to you.
I know headaches like those. I used to get the severe black-outs when I was close to the last of my hearing burning out. I feel for you and hope the pounding lets up soon.
ReplyDeleteThere isn't something to be said for the warmth of flannel sheets in the winter. I can't imagine not having them on the bed.
The picture of the pup is endearing, that alone makes one tempted to take a nap. (Hugs)Indigo
Love the bit about the house. Thats, my kind of place. Get well

ReplyDeleteI vote we stay in the bed, well not together.....well damn, if you're gonna beg.....
I look forward to tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy those warm sheets. I love my luxurious sheets and our "winter only" comforter.
Hope your sinuses and rotator cuff problems, and any other aches and pains are better by tomorrow.
my trick is to turn up the electric blanket under the fitted sheet on the bottom then trap the heat in with a blanket and a home-made afghan...that's sleeping good. And the kitties just love it! I hope you feel better soon.
ReplyDeleteFlannel sheets here year round.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better soon.
aaaah, you may not be feeling well, but your thoughts are lovely. the moon? totally agree with you and the pull. fortunately i don't get bad dreams though. and you'll be a birthday boy soon???? same star sign as was my mother... enjoy the 'silence' of your home and hope you're well real soon!!!
