Day 131

Day 131: I'm getting sick and tired of posting about being sick and tired, and I'd be willing to bet that anyone who reads this is sick and tired of reading about me being sick and tired. So how about something completely different: I have a favourite time of day. This photo, while taken during the timeline, was right at the end of it and sadly doesn't really convey what I wanted it to. We're working with limited resources here folks, so I'll try and write out what the picture doesn't say. For as long as I can remember, my favourite time of day has been between 12 noon and 2pm. I can remember being really little, before I was in school even, and it was just me and my mom at home. She would knit and watch "Midday" on tv and I would play with my Lite Brights on the floor, or she'd bake cookies and let me pour in the chocolate chips (and when I got really skilled, crack the egg into the batter [all made from scratch, y'all]). I can remember lying on our living room floor in the sunbeam that would stream into the room from the window in the stairwell. It just seems that between 12-2 the sun is at its brightest, the fuss of the morning is over, and I always remember I felt safe, and cozy. That has stayed with me, and every now and again that little timeline catches me and I can remember those feelings. I did today and it made me happy, even though I missed the photo to show you. Maybe I'll try again tomorrow. Do you have a favourite time of day? #365happydays
