And a dreary Monday at that. My plan for the day:
*. *. *
First: Go back to sleep for a couple of hours.

*. *. *
Second: A bowl of oatmeal sounds perfect for breakfast on a gray Monday morning . . . oops, nearly afternoon by now.
*. *. *
Third: Maybe get out of the cozy pajamas and crawl into some actual clothes, just in case someone rings the doorbell later.
*. *. *
Fourth: Get out the credit card and try to finish the online Christmas shopping before it’s too late to receive things in time for wrapping.

*. *. *
Fifth: Probably time to eat again. Soup . . . yes, definitely soup.
*. *. *
Sixth: Still plenty of time for a chair nap before dinner.

*. *. *
Seventh: Dinner. Not sure what. Maybe just ice cream, since lunch was so late.
*. *. *
Eighth: Write a blog chapter for tomorrow, which will require doing the one thing I’ve been avoiding all day: reading the day’s news reports. Oy!

*. *. *
Ninth: Back into cozy jammies and — hopefully, after reading the news — off to dreamland once more.

*. *. *
Yup — a perfect Monday. I should do this more often.
Just sayin’ . . .
