Feeling Better!

~Playing with a favorite Williraye figurine on my driveway~

I was on my way to work, stuck in traffic and I realized I was going to be late.  It was frustrating to say the least.  I wasn't feeling all that well so on an impulse, I called the office and told them I wouldn't be in today.  I never do that.  But I was going to be off this afternoon anyway, so the schedule was pretty light.

I don't know about you, but even though I wasn't feeling the best, just realizing that I now had an entire day that I'd not planned on to myself, made me (suddenly) feel better.

So, since I was out, I stopped at the grocery store for a few things and bought myself a danish, just to help me to keep feeling good (or better!) for the day ahead.  

Afterwards I stopped at a nursery to look at the fall plants.  Pansies are a fall favorite of mine.

Once home, I realized that the bananas I bought a few days ago were now overripe enough to now make bread, so that was what I did.  There's something comforting about fresh baked bread on a cloudy, chilly day.

After I was done baking, the dogs and I spent some time outside.

Then we all took a nap.

It was a pretty good and pretty productive "sick" day.  I think I'm feeling much better.
