How an Author Relaxes
I spent three days home last week recovering from a simple medical procedure. I wasn’t so much in pain as I was uncomfortable and physically drained. So what did I do?
Curl up and read a book? I tried but fell asleep after a couple of pages. Knit? Well, some, but the rows just seemed so long and boring. Did I watch movies? It was too much effort to figure out how to work the DVD player. (I need a grandkid to figure it out even now.)
Instead, I lounged around the house in my PJs and watched the Food Channel. I got so hungry that I spent the next two days cooking comfort food, which Wayne loved. Word quickly spread , and soon all the kids and grandkids were by to visit and take home leftovers. Now that I think about it, it actually wasn’t such a bad way to spend those few days!
