Worthless Wednesday

23 Oct

The alarm went off this morning, and I planned on it being a day like any other.  Hop out of bed, milk the girls and then head to work.  Didn’t happen that way.  I was sick.  I couldn’t even make it out to milk the girls until almost noon. The majority of my day has been spent sleeping, but when I did wake up, my time was spent watching Leo.

Leo was also watching.

Outside the window, we had all kinds of lovely birds just flitting around for his entertainment.

On the whole, I’d say I’ve been pretty worthless today.  I don’t anticipate that changing before tomorrow, when the plan is to be back at work.

I’m sharing with Wild Bird Wednesday, Jenny Matlock’s Alphabe-Thursday for the letter W, and Rurality Blog Hop.

      Leo is an awesome snuggler. Today, though, I’ve had Snickers on my lap all day.

    I hope you feel better now. Not a nice way to wake up! How nice, though, that Leo was there to keep you company.

    Our bodies usually tell us when we need ‘a rest’ ~ very necessary and not worthless ~ Look at the gorgeous photos you took! ~ thanks, feel better ~ carol, xx
    ps. Music has ‘rests’ in the composition for a reason.

      Leo and Snickers have both been by my side (or on top of me) the whole time. Thanks.

      He’d be happy if he had me all 20 hours a day that a cat sleeps. 😉

      I’m sorry you don’t have feathered visitors around. We’ve lost all of our beautiful summer friends, so it’s just the plain old sparrow, but they are nice too.

    Ah. I’m sorry. I think worthless days are necessary, though.

    Our bodies let us know when we’re supposed to stop.

    It’s just actually listening to what they’re saying that’s the weird thing!

    Hope you’re back to feeling wonderful!

    And…

    Seriously.

    You could never be worthless.

    You ARE FABULOUS!

    Thanks for linking.

    A+
