Sunshine Day

1 Feb

Today, it looks like spring outside.  The sun is shining.  If I could open a window, I’m sure I would hear birds singing.  Granted, it’s Oregon, so it’s super cold, but this sun thing….it’s odd.

I want to curl up on my couch, the sun shining in, with a cup of tea and a good book (I’m reading Jim Butcher’s Codex Alera series and rereading Phillipa Gregory’s Boleyn series too).  Or maybe zone out with some TV (I’m watching Will & Grace and The West Wing now).

Unfortunately, I’ll be curling up on my desk chair, sun shining in, with a cup of coffee and my computer.

No rest for the weary!

But it’s okay…it’s for a good cause.  It keeps my mind busy.

But sometimes….

I want to be able to do nothing.

What would you do today if you were free of all responsibilities?

    Oh, what a day to ask that. I had a heck of a day at work. And the bad thing is, it wasn’t even a “bad” day – we’ve had much worse and I know we probably will before the Season is out, but as I was driving home I just wanted to cry.

    I’d like to say that if I had no responsibilities I would get some writing done, but I know I would probably just schmooze the web or sit on the couch and knit or read.

      Ewwww, yuck! That’s the worst, when you have a bad day that isn’t even what could be described to someone as a bad day. 😦 I hope today is better!

    Oh, I would definitely curl up in bed and continue reading “Shadowfever” by Karen Marie Moning. The Fever series is definitely something I would recommend!

      Okay, definitely on my list now. Yay for new books to read!
