Today was the first Me Day in quite a while.
Not complaining at all, but sometimes a Day Just for Me is absolutely what the doctor ordered.
So what did I do first?
Yes, kindred spirits - I went thrifting.
There wasn't too much in the thrifting cards for me today, but that did not matter a wit. Just strolling along the aisles of my favorite thrift shop, casually taking in the sights, was pure pleasure.
And I came home with yet another pair of thrifted overalls.
I love overalls, and wear them around the house and to work in the garden very often. I also from time to time put a pretty, lacy blouse underneath together with a pair of cloggy shoes and wear them out. If it is a little chilly out, then a big, slouchy cardigan on top completes it.
Next on my list was a yummy sandwich for lunch while watching part of a favorite movie on Netflix... Sense and Sensibility. I could watch this movie over and over again for many reasons. The romantic clothing, the stunning scenery, the lovely, lyrical language, but most of all because of him...
Oh, how I adore Colonel Brandon.
After lunch, I fussed about changing some decor here and there. It was time to once again bring out my blue vintage typewriter thrillingly discovered at the thrift shop some months ago.
And I thought, why can't a little old typewriter be used as a vase for some thrifted silk flowers?
And I thought - well, there's no reason...
No reason at all.
I had a very lovely Me Day.
But even if Me Days are few and far between, we should always try to fit in a few Me Moments every day - at least.
It's good for the soul.
Much Love,
Helena
