From Tracie: Welcome

Welcome

I slept in this morning. Not rising at my new normal of 6am, but rather later. More like 9am. Okay almost 10. It was a late night spent cuddling with my family and a Chronicles of Narnia movie that did me in.

That, and some lingering tiredness.

It was a welcome refreshment, this time stolen for sleep.

I was ready for a break.

Happy to not turn on my computer first thing this morning.

Happy to linger over preparations for a bowl of oatmeal (cinnamon and apples) for Katarina's breakfast, and happy to question Thomas's choice of leftover chili. (Really, who does that?)

It was nice to take that time. Not rush. Let the sleepiness work its way naturally out of my body as I listened to the hum of the microwave.

Tomorrow I will wake up early, catch up on things not finished today, and great the morning with happiness.

Today was a welcome rest.

  2. I'll be doing that tomorrow and I'm pretty excited about it - good for you. Also, my husband totally eats leftovers for breakfast. Even chili. Men are weird.

  4. I saw you on Nikki's blog and any friend of hers is a friend of mine. I am older - but I am a survivor too.

  5. You caught my attention by saying you take pictures of things that are yellow! Interesting! So I guess you weren't out with your camera taking pictures of the yellow morning sun when you wrote this!

    Blessings!

  6. Sounds wonderful. I'm just surfing for the first time all weekend. Got to sleep until 8am today; my idea of a perfect morning, too :)
