My bed. It's a high four poster from Ethan Allen. Black. You have to climb in or get a running start and vault into it. Puffy down comforter. Linen sheets- well worn after many many years. Like me.
My bones are sore today. Hips mostly. Not that happy to be walking around. Aching even when I am sitting. One week to go....Seventy Six. Not that epic a birthday- 86 would be MORE of an achievement. I would match my father. I hope to match him, at least, as he was NOT in great health for the last 20 years...... refused to come live with me (us) and later ...when I saw him in hospital, he said that had been a mistake....... regret. I could have gotten him into his 90's....
My grocery store as Pot Roasts on sale. I am buying the biggest one they have. I love pot roast and I especially love it on my birthday. Mashed potatoes, Gravy. Cole Slaw (homemade). Cake and Ice cream. I might even have a green vegetable.
So those are my Future Plans. Today...Football. UGH. The Patriots are going to be SO BAD. I may switch to other games--even though the odds of finding a good one are slim. I didn't think ahead so we don't have a ball of pizza dough for Football Pizza. Sigh. I am not getting my ducks in a row this year...at all. It's the Year of Being Taken By Surprise. Rather than being forgetful.
I ate a carton of Chocolate Fudge frozen yogurt yesterday. I watched the old fashioned mystery shows on PBS. Hamish didn't kiss anyone (he's very good at that) but he smoked a lot- I was going to look the actor up and see if he died of lung cancer. I also watched a movie with Drew Barrimore (sp and spellcheck refused to help) as a newspaper reporter undercover at a high school. Great kissing at the end (especially when he said he was sorry he was late getting to her)- usually it's disappointing. Then I watched the end of the Blind Side. Strange choices but...I enjoyed all of it.....I had a good book to read...but I watched tv instead.

Your actual bed?!? I was expecting you to boldly state NOT MY BED!! you surprised me. :-)
I have to take a running jump into my bed too. Mine is a brass bed. I usually make beef jerky out of a pot roast.
