Making my bed

I love my bed...

In the morning when I get up I love making the bed before I do anything. It seems to sort of start me off for the day just in the right way. I open my blinds that cover the sliding door and let the sunshine in. That is the eastern side to the sun rises there. It is a beautiful way to wake up. I see the retaining wall with all my little flowers and plants in, some tumbling over the edge.

Russell says to me that making the bed just before getting in is making the bed. I disagree with that. I like to be able to walk past my bed or when in the bathroom and see a nicely made bed that is ready for me to get back into and re-energize my body overnight.

I must admit I have a little bit of a fetish when it comes to 100% cotton sheets and anything linen for the bed. I love to have earthy tones if at all possible. Whites are out here really as there is just too much black soil. I would have a very hard time keeping it clean.

Russell is off to work this morning. Just staying up to say goodbye and then I am back off to that lovely place called my bed...
