For many of us, it's Winter time. Many days, that means gray skies and a colder air temp. I get up, get dressed but wonder why? The morning looks the same as sunset.
I keep glancing out the window, waiting for the sun... and it's so dreary... I drift off... If you're one of those people who can fall asleep while on 'Facebook', you'll know what I'm talking about. Either that, or I'm no longer easily entertained.
Yes, that sleep thing gets you, and you find yourself wanting a wake up activity - right? Or do you return to the pajama and slipper mode and call the day off?
Ho-hum, I decided to make cookies. My favorite Peanut Butter cookies. Thank goodness for timers that wake me up to take the cookies from the oven. So far, I've never slept through a timer bell. That baby is loud!
What do you like to do on sunless, Winter days? Do you like cookies, and if so, what's your favorite? If you could, would you stay in pajamas all day?
On the weekends, I live in lounge pants.
ReplyDeleteThose kinds of days, I play a lot of computer games and my guitar. At least I don't have to go out and do any yard work since everything is hibernating.
Glad you don't burn the cookies. That's cookie abuse.
Loung pants for a guitar player - why does that not surprise me? (smile).
DeleteAlex - I do not burn cookies!!!
Yes, I am glad everything if hibernating too.
Reading in bed is always good. With..... lemme think, tea an chic chip cookies, or those sandwich ones, almond, yes! And I would, if I could, yes I would *smiles*
ReplyDeleteShadow - reading is relaxing - I agree.
Delete*Smiles* to you. and for those lovely posts you've had in the last couple of weeks.
One of my favorite things over the holidays is to stay in jammies all day. I'll shower and change right into fresh ones. It's such a treat.
ReplyDeleteI have to move around to stay awake. Today is one of those dreary, sleepy days. I keep walking to the kitchen for cups of tea.
Oh yes, Liz, 'jammie season,' I love it!
DeleteI saw the sun for ten minutes. That's a record for this week!
Sometimes on the weekend, if I don't have to be anywhere, I'll stay in my pjs all day! Always a treat.
ReplyDeleteIt really is... and my favorite trusty robe!!
DeleteI just write away or watch tv on those days, not that I leave on many days any way lol
ReplyDeletePat - no joke, and you, friend, have the awesome number of posts to prove those words, (smile).
DeleteI love to listen to Danny Boy before I go to sleep or a cd of one of my self help themes.
ReplyDeleteGreat post Dixie.
Yvonne.
Yvonne, I didn't think about the "sleep hour" but I have this sound machine that I play. I love to hear the ocean waves. Ooh, that reminds me... I think I'll put on some Beach Boys, today!
DeleteThat you, dear, (smile).
I like to just lay in bed and read on "those" kinds of days. Not in pajamas (I don't wear 'em), but in baggy sweatpants and a loose T-shirt.

I have a terrific chair for reading.
Delete>>..."baggy sweatpants and a loose T-shirt."
That's definitely my lounge uniform of choice. However my back dictates the need to stretch; I can't stay down for long.
I can't stay in, whatever the weather. Feel I have to walk everyday sun, rain or snow, doesn't feel right otherwise. As for cookies / biscuits, my favourites are dark chocolate digestives - with a mug of tea.
ReplyDeleteMike, in this case, we're alike. I enjoy all kinds of weather.
DeleteA friend introduced me to Peppermint tea, and it's great with dark chocolate!!
I don't know how they taste, but they look like art.
