If Dreams Came Through

Frieda is dreaming of a nice day at the beach.


I was kind of off yesterday. No concentration at all. To prove the point, I dully sat in a chair with my feet on the ottoman all day numbly watching Murder She Wrote. Yes, yes indeed, I did. Perhaps a bit too willingly, but there I was. 

I had a blood draw this morning and lunch from the deli. My amazing day thus far. Last evening I gathered  enough oomph to put this together for dinner: 


I know I put the recipe up a few months ago, but if you missed it, it's Giada De Laurentiis' sheet pan lasagna. No oomphs needed for this one. Hoping better days of energy are awaiting me.

Yes, let's hope your energy level returns soon. Maybe a bit of spring weather will help.

Fingers crossed for more energy, but also bless streaming for those waiting times.

Sandra said...

It would, Boud.

Sandra said...

I couldn't even concentrate on listing to a book, Cheerful. I was out of it.

Val Ewing said...

We all have days like that where we have to just zone out and let our minds rest.
Hope your energy eeks back in....

I will admit that I am a professional binger when I find a series that I like. Funny, I just saw a video of Giada make that pan lasagna. Will have to try it! The current state of the country has everyone off balance.....ugh.

Hope you get some energy back. I like where Frieda is at:)

Frieda has the right idea...I hope you get some umph back soon.

Sandra said...

It's eeking, Val. We need the rain but the gloomy weather doesn't help.

Sandra said...

I guess it's karma, Lori. Now you must make it! It's true, everything is upended.

Sandra said...

I wouldn't mind being there either, Far Side!

Sandra said...

According to Frieda, she always has the right Idea, e!

I’ll bet that Frieda was very happy to watch Murder She Wrote with you.

Sandra said...

I think she put her paws over her eyes after maybe the third hour, AC.

Val Ewing said...

No it doesn't. Get Legos and play, that would het.🤪

Val Ewing said...

Help....

Pixie said...

It's okay to have a down day. It's what your body and mind needed I'm guessing. Sending hugs.

Some days you just have to go with what makes you feel good and if it' watching Murder She Wrote then why not?

Rita said...

LOL! I was binge-watching Stargate SG-1!!! :)

nick said...

Well, if Frieda can imagine a day lazing on the beach, why shouldn't her owner be equally lazy?

Sandra said...

I think that is a fine way of looking at it, nick.

Much of the US is under a cloud of depression, Pixie. It's becoming a natural state of being.

So true, Dorothy.
