In response to Di’s daily Prompt:

Recovery has unexpected side effects.

One of them is discovering that tea, blankets, and quiet afternoons can feel almost like romance.

Not the dramatic movie kind —
no violins,
no grand declarations.

Just the gentle romance of comfort.

The true remedy for a tired body turns out to be simple things:
warm tea,
soft pillows,
sunlight sneaking through the window.

Of course, life refuses to stay peaceful for long.

Enter the household rascal.

A dog with suspiciously good timing
and a talent for stealing socks
the exact moment you begin to relax.

Suddenly the romance of rest
turns into a small comedy of chaos.

But maybe that’s the real remedy.

A little peace.
A little laughter.
And a rascal reminding you that life
is still very much happening 💜

        That’s all you can do. Both Hubby and I get so frustrated because we can’t do what we used to in a sensible time frame, and if we have a bad day, it takes so much longer to recover. We hate taking pain killers, but sometimes have no choice. We plod on though.
        Take care.
