something about a bath...

hi dear family and friends,
it is tuesday night around 8pm, i am freshly bathed and smell delicious. i am sitting on my bed, music can be heart from downstairs, a fragrance stick is burning and fills the room with its amazing aroma. i feel warm, happy, cozy and at peace.
i had a good day.
it was one of those days that start like every other and from which i didn't expect anything. and it just onfolded, floating along like a happy, lazy and at peace little stream in the forest. i watched rowan this morning for a couple hours and helped romona get ready for her trip to nyc. she is on the bus now. and will be until tomorrow morning,. it is a 13 hour ride to nyc. not that much. but still. she bought 3 bottles of water. and a couple muffins for on the way. well, my lunch box always looked quite different. several sandwiches, crackers maybe some water...:)
i just found out today that there is a nice little park close by that belongs to the hospital. we took rowan for a walk there and she feel asleep on the way. i am so happy that there is a park close to where i live so i can go for walks and such.
after i dropped of ramona at the bus stop i walked home in the lovely fall air. i had a long bath and just enjoyed how the warmth of the water relaxed my mussels and my soul. i had some candle lit and there is something about a bath that just makes me happy every time i have one.i feel really blessed that i live in a country where i can have a bath and the luxury of warm water in abundance.
when i worked at the cornerstone today i felt like my brain was still at home. as if it got caught on the way out of the house and i left without it. i am usually really good at having everything under control and knowing what to do next etc. but today i was just floating. starting something and then running off to do something else and forgetting what it was that i had originally done. it was weird. i had something to eat cause i thought i might be hungry but it did not help. so i was very happy when i was able to leave at 5pm.
around 2pm everything was pretty quiet so jer, the server in charge decided to have a smoke outside in the back and leave me with the couple guests for a couple minutes. well, as soon as he left 9 people came in and i was busy getting menues out and orders served. it was quite stressful for a minute and the thought came up: 'ha, so that is how it feels when i am a server'...

the other day there was another jewels-moment. i think it was last friday when i was working and it was raining really hard outside. there were 3 girls on one table and the 4th just came in the door. the other server was busy so i went over there and said: hi, how are you today? it is quite chilly outside, ej?? and you got totally wet. can i get you a cup of tea? and the girl says, yeah, it is raining pretty hard but i had my raincoat on so i didn't get wet. and i am like: oh cool, i just meant cause your hair is wet. and the girl looks up to me and goes: mhm, it is not wet just fatty.
oh well.;>)
i am sending you blessings and hope you have a moment where you feel as cozy as i do right now.
love,
jewels
