A Simple Day

Some days it's good to do nothing.
No deadlines to meet, no chores to complete, no lists to check twice.
A day to lounge in the comfort of your pajamas and woolly socks, to gaze out of the window and watch the falling leaves drift slowly to the ground.
A day for sipping cups of tea and curling up by the fireside with a portly feline at your side.
A simple day.

Oh how true. And what a lovely view. Could look out of that window for hours.

Gorgeous photo. I like a few of those days in the winter mostly.

I couldn't agree with you more! I have begun to really enjoy those 'slow down' days!

Beautiful photo and words. I always love a pet to curl up with. These days since Jesse is gone, it is Dustin who wants to cuddle on the couch every chance he gets. He's always lying in my favorite spot waiting.

Sounds like a wonderful way to spend the day to me! Especially in jammies!

those are the best days...if possible everyone should take a day every now and then to do nothing...the photo subject is so calm and serene

We all need those simple days. Unfortunately they don't come by often enough.

To steal away to that quiet
corner and relish the calm
and uninterrupted time...
what a feast for the soul!
Tea, an inspiring book to
engage the imagination or
some needlework to engage
the creative juices and our
beloved Yorkie curled in
attendance..with a beautiful
Tennessee day unfolding
beyond the window....I could
ask for no more....
