A Slow Day Today

It's been a slow day for me. Both my hubby and I got up early today, but because it was cold lounged in bed most of the morning. We had coffee and raspberry danish in bed and watched television. I finally got up and took care of all the animal. I had a few more things to tag for the flea market, but didn't feel like doing it. So I went back outside and picked up limbs. I also started a fire and burned some. The wind was only around 5 mph so we kept it low with big logs on and a slow burn. Fixing to go prepare something for dinner tonight. I think it may be leftovers. I don't have much motivation today. How was your day today? Photo Credit: Pixabay, Public Domain

It was cold yesterday morning with a chilly breeze. We went grocery shopping but I couldn't see and Pretty didn't want to get groceries. We forgot milk and several other things we needed. She makes me mad sometimes. My eyes started opening up around 3 am today so I'm trying to catch up on myLot.

Sorry you forgot to get some things at the store. That is annoying. I hope your eyes behave for a few days and don't give you any more trouble. Does all this pollen right now aggravate the situation?

@DaddyEvil It's been crazy here. My car has been covered with the pollen. Got it washed and right back on it. Grrr.

@kareng Thanks. Yes, pollen and dust in the air can both irritate my eyes and make them water a lot. I'm also allergic to both pollen and dust so that's not helping matters.

It wasn't bad here today. But I wasn't real motivated

It was cooler here, but not bad since the wind wasn't blowing 15 mph today. Tomorrow will be better. Our low is only 44 tonight. Much better than that borderline freeze last night!

@wolfgirl569 I checked the 10 day forecast last night and it looks like Thursday night was our last night in the 30's for awhile. I was surprised to see no nights in the 40's either. This weather is very bizarre right now.

I had a terrific day!!! I went to lunch, got everything I needed from the store, and even ran into an old boss (from 20+ years ago) at Walmart! Got the lights put up, took a nap, and had a wonderful evening!

It's nice to just have a lazy day, sometimes, especially when it's cold. I can't get motivated when it's cold, even when I know moving around wil warm me up!

Honestly, it sounds like a wonderful day. Even breakfast in bed!! Sometimes, we just need to slow down and appreciate time spent together.

That actually sounds like a pretty peaceful day! A slow morning in bed with coffee and danish sounds like the perfect way to start. And getting outside for a bit, even just to pick up limbs and keep a small fire going, is a nice balance. Some days, motivation just isn’t there, and that’s okay—leftovers are a great solution! My day was good. Hope you have a relaxing evening!

Yes, it wasn't bad. Didn't want to force the issue. It will be okay! Have a great weekend!

That's what we do when the weather isn't right to do anything but stay in & being lazy but I hope in the next 6 wks the weather changes where we can get something going with the cabin, cause we still have a good bunch of stuff to get done yet inside b-4 we can move outside of it.

Last night is hopefully our last night of cold.
