It’s not our ‘Beary Best Day’!

We fluffed up the purple pillows on my bed to take it easy today.

Baby Bear and I don’t feel ‘beary’ good!

And it’s actually nice not to have a bright sunny day today but clouds and a few sprinkles with nice temps.

I shouldn’t complain, I have a nice stack of library books and we bought groceries and even walked at the park just before I started feeling bad.

I’m sipping citrus and spice tea from my new tea cup (thanks Ruth!!!) and snacking on cinnamon toast.

I even have this new pillow to look at from my bed if I need to rest. (found at Hospice Thrift Store)

This was something Ria from It’s Me blog posted for the new year.

Isn’t it perfect?

I’ll visit as soon as I feel a little better.

I’m writing this on Thursday to publish on Friday so I am SURE I am all better now!

How are you today?

I hope you feel better soon, Diane. We've all had a cold here with sore throat and laryngitis. It takes 4 or 5 days to go away.

Rest, and let Mr. Lavender and Wendy take care of you. Spoiling is good for you. Make sure to give Baby Bear some tea and honey for his little tummy.

Hugs,

Hi Diane, I do hope you feel better soon. You are so lucky to be in warm weather as we had 6 inches of snow and it is only 10 degrees. I am making soup today to stay warm. Happy New Year and be well.

Musings from Kim K. said...

I certainly hope it was a 24 hour bug and that you are on the mend. Sending extra hugs from a very snowy MI.

Sallie (FullTime-Life) said...

Oh Diane, I hope you are better by now. Be well my friend! Cinammon toast should help ...that's what I got when I was sick and so did my kids. With tea or ginger ale, depending... (Actually, although I feel fine at the moment, I want some badly now!). And I love the Neil Gaiman prose poem. Thank you and Happy New Year. (And get well soon. It's a little chilly (for Florida) so not too bad a time to stay in and recover.)

Suzan said...

Hope you feel better!!! Cute little bear!

Kathy said...

Diane, I'm sorry you are under the weather and hope you are better soon. Thank you for sharing that thought for the new year. It is lovely!
