For us, life most often proceeds at breakneck speed.
Three busy adults with demanding schedules most often find ourselves skidding into Friday night exhausted. We often joke that a "hot" Friday night for us is when we wake up from our after-work "nap" at around 9 PM to eat a snack before going back to bed for the night... We're a really sexy bunch.
This last Friday night, however, we hung it together somehow and had a lovely, warm evening relaxing together.
It has cooled off here finally. The warm lingering heat departed suddenly and a chill has descended on the Midwest. We all got home and snuggled in for the evening. T made some wonderful sandwiches and we laid a roaring fire in the fireplace -- the first one of the season. We gathered around the fire, joined by the silly cat, put Comedy Central on the tube, and simply enjoyed the downtime and one another's company.
It was grand. Hours to spend laughing, chatting, relaxing. No stress, no place to go, nothing serious to have to do.
Ahhhhh...

we had our first fire last wednesday... of course we only ended up watching it about 15 minutes before we were very very "distracted"...
ReplyDeleteAlgor -- we don't get distracted from fire... Here in the "damn near" south the chance to have a fire is a gift not to be treated lightly... AND there was Carlos Mencia on Comedy Central. The man is just almost way to bright... Joy heaped on joy.
