The poison oak that I picked up 5 weeks ago and the resulting allergic reaction that I had to the prednisone, completely knocked me on my ass. Since we bought the house last year, I'm always doing something, always on the go. I have a hard time sitting still. I love to putter around our nest and cross things off my neverending list of things to do. But after a month of sitting and not doing much of anything, my list has grown to epic proportions. It's actually quite frightning. In a good way.
The last 5 weeks have taught me something though. It's good to relax. There is nothing wrong with sitting on the couch with a great book. And it's important to put some fun things on the To Do list. Right below item number 3, Paint the Kitchen Ceiling, is item number 4: Visit Millbrook.
A picturesque little town slightly north of us, Millbrook is full of wineries and a well advertised consignment shop. Tomorrow morning, we'll enjoy a cup of chicory and some beignets to remind us of our time in New Orleans. Then we'll leisurely head up north, try and find some coffee tables for our house and then taste some of the local wines.
I have a lot of things to post about here and I'll start to catch up soon. But first, I need to enjoy a relaxing Saturday with my wonderful husband!
