A little clumsy...

I'm not really that clumsy of a person. I am sure footed on wet river rocks, walking in strong currents, and standing on wet rafts... so can someone tell me how that all changes on a little bit of ice?

I was running carpool this morning and when I stopped to get one of the girls, I fell on the sidewalk. I fell HARD. My hips, back, foot, and knee are all sore! I can't believe how ungraceful I was. I did get by without ripping my jeans though.

I think I might be getting a little old. A few years ago, I would have either caught myself, or at least not looked like a flailing elephant when I fell ;)

Here is my foot... I haven't had the nerve to take a look at my back and hip yet.

There is a chill in the air...

It has been COLD in WNC for weeks now, not just chilly, but cold. I have lived up on the lakes, and this even beats that! Our well has frozen (and thankfully unfrozen) and the heat pump is working overtime to keep the house in the low 60's.

Today, I finally broke out the scarf to wear in the house... Thank you aunt Kathy for making me a gift that I would not have otherwise had time to make for myself!

The end of the day...

At the end of the day, I have this chair I like to sit and have a glass of wine in...

The chair, by normal standards is hideous. It is BRIGHT royal blue, on rollers, square, and big.

To me, it is the most awesome chair in the world. It is actually a set of 2 that I have. They are from the 1950's and we got them at a resort a few years back... The chair is just the right size to curl up your legs, hold a glass of wine, and to relax in. Honestly, if it weren't for the color, I don't think my husband would object to them so much... but then again, I love color, and I picked the chairs :o)

I love having the perfect place to relax. Do you have one?
