Paperwhites

They are fully budded but haven't opened yet so the overpowering fragrance is still a few days away.  There are people who love the scent.  I am not one of them.  I live a fragrance free life, generally, but do like very pale, citrus scents in bath products.  Something I can smell but you can't.  This mass of green, growing stuff is so good to be seeing on cold snowy days.  The only thing better is a visit to a greenhouse, because the greenhouse has that earthy, moist dirt smell.  Miss it.

When G got home from work yesterday, he found me on the couch, sleepy and interested in ordering take out.  I had a Greek Salad and a skimpy cheese wedge with marinara.  I have them put 1/3rd of the cheese on what is a thin 10 inch cheese pizza.  G had cheese ravioli with meatballs and a side salad.  It was all very good.  Then I worked on stuff at the computer and G watched the "Cape" a pilot for a series on television.

The sun is shining, it's 28 degrees, G is walking the dog and then we will be watching Football.  I plan on doing a bit of house straightening in between now and Football.  Taking a shower and getting dressed, also. In other words, I have no ambitious ideas for the day.  G wants to carry the Pilates box upstairs and get the machine set up.  That's a good idea.  He thinks he wants to use it.  Why not. I'm still just getting used to the "idea" of using the machine.  And I still haven't made a decision on Netflix or the iPad.  A real "foot dragger".
