It's 4.30pm & a fair bet that I won't leave the house today. I call this quite an achievement

Whenever I'm Wednesday-deep in my working week, I'm always thinking how good it would be to have a day doing nothing. Somehow, it never happens. As my Journal title says - 'There's always something about to happen' & it takes precedence, usually by necessity, over doing nothing

Not today. Having seen Long-Suffering Partner off to work at about 7.30 this morning, I've worked on some photos, listened to a lot of music, fed the butcherbirds a couple of times, read some more of 'Raising Steam', one of the last Discworld novels by the late, much-lamented Terry Pratchett, had a couple of coffees, grazed a little on whatever's in the cupboards or fridge that looked appetising... & have now poured a decent shot of Glen Morangie. Soon, my lamb korma will be defrosted enough to call it dinner & I'll find a DVD to keep me entertained enough 'til bedtime... whenever that will be

Before you paint me as an utter sloth, I have repaired (hopefully) a kitchen cupboard that needed attention & done a couple of little household chores as they presented themselves & I will remember to take the bins out tonight!!

Probably...

It's good to have a day for yourself doing what you wish.
I hope you enjoyed it thoroughly.

Beautiful photo. So serene & also majestic with the mountains in the background.
Where was it taken?

I 'pulled' the photo onto the desktop and 'stretched' it out to be much bigger so it was easier to dip my feet into the water.
WoW!! Cold!

That's the Yosemite Valley floor - with the cold Merced River in the foreground & El Capitan is the big hunk of granite at the back!!

Probably would be a bit cold right now...
