A Little Break Here

I am doing some vacuuming and mopping the kitchen floor and the hall. So I am getting tired already and decided to take a short break here before I go on. It is so cold today and although our furnace is at 23 , I am still cold even with doing the vacuum. My hands are blue thanks to the Raynaud's Syndrome and I have to constantly reheat my heating pad in the microwave so I can warm them up. A nuisance to say the least. Are you doing any cleaning today or just relaxing?

I like the "relaxing part" when I clean.

We're at a condo in Myrtle Beach, SC, so I'm just chillin'. But in a much warmer place than so many myLotters around the world. Stay safe and warm as you can.

Yes, it is a bit cool. I went to my place of worship this morning, came home, and haven't done much except eat and typing on myLot.

Yes, I did. I had my apartment cleaned by the stroke of midnight. It was a pleasure to wake up on New Year's Day and not have any cleaning to do.

I Tanikka Paulk suffer from Raynaud's and oh my goodness when the cold comes to Miami the pain is so intense. There are ways to limit the painful episodes though. Stay warm.

Nope, no house hold chore here. Were just waiting for the Fire works to run out so we could go to sleep.

I've been busy in the kitchen also, but instead of cleaning it I was using it. I baked a batch of cranberry-muffins and made a bath of broccoli-cauliflower soup. The soup is to warm me on my lunch break next week when I go back to work. Now I'm relaxing, soon I'll take a little 20 minute nap so that I'm ready and raring to go out for supper in a few hours.

@marlina Thanks, we're both really looking forward to supper. We've been going to the same place for years, but now that we've moved here to London, that place is way back in Chatham. So we found a nice little place up here a few blocks from where we live. Enjoy the rest of your day, the next time you stop to warm your hands, pack it in and pick it up another day.

The little nap should help you a lot. Enjoy the supper later on.

I don't think it needs a lot of focusing to be just lazy.

We’re all just staying in. It’s so cold outside. I don’t even dare go out. I’m glad I don’t have to.

I was doing a bit of cleaning but stopped for a bit as you did Marlina. I am so sorry to hear your hands are so cold. That Raynauds Syndrome is really a nuisance aye? It is quite cold here today, but I do not mind it.
