Soft Noses

 I’ve done self care things today and took an annual leave day from work 
I walked over to the ponies and breathed up their soft noses for an age. 
They smell of straw and oats and earth and have trusting soft brown eyes.
I’ve video messaged my German friend over coffee 
And ate Marks & Spencer tomato soup with garlic bread in front of the fire. and watched documentaries on film directors
I walked the dogs and completed housework and soaked my feel in a washing up bowl filled with incredibly hot water and Epsom salts.
And it’s been a nice day

    That sounds like the perfect low key day off. Time to just breathe and appreciate the simple things in life. Oh, having the time to do just that! Good for you in every sense of the word.

    A very nice day for you, indeed! Do you have a list of lovely things to do when you have the odd 20 minutes or more? It helps!
    Our 18 hours of rain yesterday washed away and melted the last of the snow and ice. At last!

    Hugs!
