Backs and muscles in their 60's seem to feel it way more than they did in their 30's.Even though I don't have the extra crystals added yet, I wanted to get a couple of shots of the tub and light in the blog.
Ignore the fact that the windows aren't cleaned yet, either, please. This view is to the East/Southeast. There are no houses in that line of sight, so I can feel free to sit in the big old tub naked as a jaybird and soak. (Ever wonder why the phrase is naked as a JAYBIRD? Are they only birds that run around naked?)
Check out all the bubbles. I keep forgetting to buy bubble bath, so it's shampoo. Smells good. Candles in both windows too. The other window faces the 90 degree direction; can't be seen in the photos.
Mom's old pie cabinet looks great doesn't it? And Ruth's old tub. Yep, this is my sentimental corner.
It's also my private corner. I close the door, and dogs, cats and husband all manage to give me a few minutes to myself. Actually, cats do scratch at the door, but I ignore that.
Lounging in the tub (which is nice and deep, unlike modern tubs) this is the view looking up.The chandelier is a cream color and the ceiling a lighter cream, almost white. I love how the shadows play on the ceiling. It's a bit exaggerated from the flash, but this is the general look. Very calming.
So, you might wonder, while I'm having all this peace and tranquility, what might Scottie be doing?
He would tell you he was watching TV, but we know better. Snoozing. Definitely. And, if it were a closer shot you just might see a bit of drool dropping down to the T-shirt.
Like I said, moving is hard work.
