Lazy!
Today was my kind of spring break day. I slept in 'till NINE, which almost never happens except at Kyle & Kris's house. There are no windows in the room where we sleep, so it is easy to do.
After I woke up and Kyle made breakfast, I settled in here to read...
and I pretty much stayed here all day. I read two books: Soulbound by Heather Brewer and Endangered by Eliot Schrefer. At one point I was covered up with two blankets and all of those pillows. My nephew wanted me to be nice and cozy, and cozy I was! It was a cold day here in Baraboo, and I wasn't especially wanting to go outside anyway.
This lazy day was a much needed recharge for my batteries. At home, I have too many things I need to do; too many errands to run, and too much laundry to do. Here, I don't feel guilty for not tackling my enormous to-do list. I can just BE.
Right now, we're all winding down, and Kyle's entertaining the kids by showing them funny youtube videos. I don't know whether to laugh or be appalled. The videos aren't any worse than what they show on America's Funniest Home Videos, but I still feel like I shouldn't chuckle.
I think it's time for me to start my THIRD #bookaday. So I'm signing off. Hope you all had a relaxing and book-filled Sunday!
(I mean, really, how can I resist reading in front of THAT fireplace?)

Enjoy your lazy break, Mindi! I had a very similar lazy break the week before last. It was exactly what I needed, lots of reading, resting, and recharging.
