She looked at me with wide “innocent” eyes. “Why don’t you take a bath instead?” “Excuse me? Are you trying to push off your science longer?” “I’m just saying you should take some … Continue reading Saturday Afternoon (oops…late afternoon/early evening) Chat: Injured knee, sick dog, getting the kid hooked on Dr. Quinn and Newhart

Saturday Afternoon Chat: Walking weather, cozy days for reading, and a fairly routine week

A cup of peppermint tea with honey, a piece of chocolate with coconut flakes, a warm blanket, and a book are the tools I have been using today as I try to relax.
