What Exactly Does "Rest" Mean ?
The Doctor told me I needed to rest for a week. I suppose rest means different things to different people. I am pretty sure he meant the kind of "rest" that I consider "to vegetate" and that is next to impossible for me. I spent two complete days in my pajamas watching Hallmark movies. Drove me crazy ! I do not sit still well. I didn't feel good enough to do much so I watched Emery do my chores and fix my meals. Torture for me. Today, while Emery was at work, I thought about that word, "rest" and decided to use my own meaning. To rest is to do things indoors, that are not "work" related and don't cause you to break out in a sweat (fun stuff, in other words). I think that's perfectly reasonable.
So, I took a shower, got dressed, then made a Christmas apron and fruitcake, then I sat on the sofa and watched Hallmark Christmas movies. What a restful day !

I have not ordered it yet, waiting until after Christmas.
I am feeling a bit better today and it sure is a good feeling to be on the mend.
It's hard for us to realize we'd all be better off when we begin to get sick if we just stopped, stayed in the house, and rested our minds as well as our bodies, we'd all get well much quicker. Glad you did that and are on the mend now.
I enjoy your pictures every day. Is your camera back from being repaired? I don't know new pictures from old pictures however.
I love the way you use lamps and candles in your house. My husband would never let me light a candle or lamp in the house but I certainly enjoy yours.
I can't imagine how many dishes you must have to be able to assemble these lovely pictures.
Hope you continue to feel better.
