On my back…

It has been foggy in the Palisades of late.

The coastal fog conditions dictate luxuriating a bit longer in bed. When you are used to sunshine and low humidity who wants to take a hike in cloudy, damp, moist surroundings especially when my hair is looking mighty fine.

Why is lounging in bed so enticing? Keep the shutters or drapes closed, turn on the TV, read a book, make a large cappuccino, have your husband provide breakfast in bed…ecstasy.

But when one contemplates death the thought of lying in a satan covered bed in the dark, the sweat trickles down my back and I have to reach for a Tums.

Perspective is everything. So even though I am enjoying lounging, surrendering to the peace and solitude, lolling alone in a queen sized bed, I think I will get up, exercise, move around while I still have time and the means to be mobile.

Finn, Madison and I are vertical and heading for the hills….have a fabulous weekend and may the NY Yankees win a game.
