Sunday was a day of complete rest. I decided I was taking a "mental health day" and hanging out in my pj's for awhile. No "public appearances". I stayed home from everything. Church, shopping, neighbors, friends everything. What did I discover?
The concept doesn't work if there are 3 other people in the house and you have a doorbell and a telephone. Nice try.
I did however get nine hours of sleep for I am SURE my family is profoundly grateful (if only because I wasn't nagging them about something when I was comatose!).Monday I spent all day in the studio. I finished my niece's personalized birthday pillow (I will post a pic once I have permission from her mama.)
and designed, planned and executed an entire collage. I was so excited to start and finish something in the same day! Doesn't occur often in my life. For example Tuesday: I am not sure WHAT I actually accompished but I did do a little treasure hunting and shifted my family's "piles o' stuff" from one side of the house to the other. Tuesday night brought an ice storm so Wednesday morning brought school delays (of course!) and me chipping the side walk and stairs so Bob didn't have to feel like he was taking his life in his own hands by leaving the house! We have set the date for Bob's hip replacement. March 18th. So keep your fingers crossed, say prayers for patience and healing and send some good juju our way as the date nears! Peace.
