Sleep, Rest, and Recliners

Sleep is wonderful.  I slept in until 10 am this morning.  That is the first time I’ve done that in a long time.  Of course I didn’t go to bed until nearly 2 am but still.  I don’t normally get nearly 8 hours of sleep.  I’m happy with 6 and okay with 5.  Nearly 8 hours is almost like winning the lottery.

My day started off late and good.  I took a hot shower and pampered myself a bit.  I did get dressed, though I thought seriously about just doing the jammies thing all day.  Vicki made scrumptious bagel, egg, ham sandwiches for brunch. 

I got an hour to myself in the house.  It was quiet and peaceful.  I watched dvr stuff and crocheted.  I actually made some good progress today on the baby afghan I’m working on.  That was the most industrious thing I did today. 

My recliner and I are best of buddies this weekend.  I had my nap in it yesterday and today I just hung out in it crocheting while Vicki and I watched The Way We Live Now.  It is a period piece and was well acted and produced but the story was weak and predictable. 

I finished the Grimm Sisters book I was reading yesterday.  Now I’m moving on to Treachery in Death by J D Robb.  I can’t wait to read it.  I’ve been very much enjoying her series.  I’ll start it tomorrow during lunch since I’ll have to take an early one because of our faculty meeting.

It has been a good weekend with lots of rest.  I feel slightly better which was the purpose of so much bum time this weekend.  I hope that when I tackle the week I won’t be feeling so worn out.  Tomorrow will be the test.  I’ll also try to make a point of getting to bed before midnight… maybe…
