A Lazy Kind of Day

Rainy days, especially cool ones, make me want to stay in bed. And since I had the mother of all headaches yesterday, that's what I did. Tyl*n*l and hot tea did nothing for it, so the only thing to do was crawl back under the covers. 

Unfortunately, I couldn't turn off the cell phone, in case there was an important call. I had quite a few, and none of them was very important. But I never turn it off unless I'm in church or a movie, so I got interrupted nearly every time I drifted off to sleep. I fought the urge to throw the phone across the room every time...lol. I finally rallied around 4 pm (just about the time it quit raining and the sun came out), took a shower and dressed, which made me feel better at long last.

Around here, Sunday night is not a good time to plan a dinner out with friends. We discussed three different restaurants; two of them turned out to be closed on Sundays and the other one (fancy French foods with lots of butter) makes me sick every time I go there - so we have opted for Bonefish Grill. Next time we make plans to eat out, it will not be for Sunday night. This dinner is a belated celebration for my birthday, as well as the other woman, whose birthday is three days ahead of mine. Nothing like celebrating your birthday for weeks and weeks, is there?  I recommend it.

Yes, make your birthdays last as long as possible, is my motto!

I'm doing that today, when we go over to our daughter for a combined birthday (last week) and Golden Wedding (next Friday) celebration!

She's doing as a special meal :)

Keep those celebrations going for as long as you can! Sorry to hear about the headache, I hope it is well and truly gone now.

Lucky you--the Bonefish Grill. I still remember and drool over a chicken dish I had there-- Lily's Chicken with goat cheese, artichokes and spinach. Super yum.
Hope that headache is gone. I used to have 4 day migraines and they do control your life. I out grew mine. Be well.

Have you ever been to the Bonefish Grill? Mom wanted to go so she and Dad went one day while out without me......hmm. Anyway, she said it was ok but my dad was not that impressed. Perhaps, he simply ordered the wrong thing. What is really good there?

If I went to bed every time it rained here in the UK, I'd be in it all the time! In fact that's where I should be now, but I can't sleep.

Monday is not good for eating out here.
