Day 25 -- A moment to relax

Much of today was filled with that usual weekend stuff -- laundry, cleaning and such. It also comprised several hours of preparing lectures for the next section of a course -- usual stuff for academics it seems <smile>.  It was definitely a day with far less physical activity than the past few days, which had been filled with snow removal and much walking through drifts. The many trips to the basement today for laundry and retrieving things from the pantry were far less strenuous <smile>.

This evening I chose to soak in the tub for a while, hoping this might help the still sore muscle groups from pushing and lifting many many times my body weight in snow. While soaking I chose to listen to some relaxing music. A favourite album of mine, Tropical Campfires, did the trick tonight. It has fun up tempo songs and others that are slower --  a blending of calypso and western beats. The vocals are breath-taking -- such a fantastic voice that has changed little in the past decades -- thankfully <smile>.

This song has delightful arrangements and orchestration. Enjoy!

Yellow Butterfly -- Michael Nesmith
