Bath Time

Just had a soak in my bath tub Gave my tired body a good scrub Lay back and relaxed in the lavender bubbles Soothed away my cares and troubles Feel refreshed and carefree Back to being happy me Got rid of my sad muse Will try and write now to amuse Jan Allison 20th August 2014

Sorry to hear about the sad muse, Jan. Every morning I get up, I look for something inspiring, sometimes I find it right here. Best Wishes JTC

mmmmmmI agree wholeheartedly, a soak in lavender bubbles with soft music playing, soon asleep and then reality, wake up to a cold bath with the jaccuzzi spraying you with it... Seren

I hate showers (apart from rain) they make me feel claustrophobic unless they are very very big - adore the peaceful time to relax in the bath:-) Hugs Jan sss

Oh me too Paul. when I go for my aromatherapy massage at the hospice they use lavender as one of the essential oils and it is so so relaxing. Hospice here is wonderful they provide the service free of charge for carers - I can have 4 free and dependent on circumstances they will let me continue - I always give a donation anyway:-) hugs Jan xxx
