Rest

It has been a beautiful sunny Winter weekend.

I went out to lunch with some old school friends yesterday

(Hi Guy! Hi Nat! Hi Tanu!)

and we talked about how sacrificing sleep,

even if it is a way of extending your life outside of work,

is not a good habit to get into.
So,

this morning I allowed myself the luxury of sleeping in until 11:00 am
then dawdled over breakfast, hung out with the cat, pottered around in the garden and just enjoyed the simplicity of it all.

I love going s l o w l y.

and Molly, my faithful nap and sleep~in companion.
