Gosh it's dark- pitch black and cold by 6 p.m. I have no desire whatsoever to go out - all I want to do is curl up and hibernate. I'm fine with people coming to see me - always welcome for cosy chats , tea and sympathy , ( wine on a weekend) and a bite to eat, There are few things more enjoyable than eating drinking and chatting with people you like.

It's been a long day, I've not had much sleep.
In lats night's dream Taylor Hayes ( psychiatrist character in " the bold and the beautiful ") is in pain and about to miscarry , but then gives birth to a beautiful baby girl, I see the baby's head emerge and she just plops out :) In the same dream I am aware that there is something dangerous or suspicious in the cellar and I dare not look.

The cellar is probably something to do with my subconscious.Something is lurking there and will probably emerge at some point ;)

I'm making soups all the time telling myself that they are warming and full of goodness ; carrots, tomatoes, onions, garlic , lentils ..all made from scratch.

soups fill me for a while , but not long , not without bread *sighs* and I suspect it is bread that is adding to the roundness of my tummy :roll: The rye bread I made last with sour dough is FAB , and actually quite filling and satisfying. I allow myself 3 slices a day :)

Candles .. candles and more candles .. might make some ... do you know you can make your own scented candles with paraffin wax , and a few drops of essential oils ?

TTFN may you be as snug as a bug in a rug :)
