It’s been a long week…

What do you do after a long week? As a kid, I observed adults napping during long, hot, silent summer afternoons. Even the birds were quiet. Now, when I can make the time, I take advantage of summer afternoons to snooze too.

I don’t nap during winter or fall. Naps are reserved for summer alone. During weekends, I will sometimes doze off while reading and wake up later, deeply refreshed. Indoor naps are lovely, but the best ones I remember are those taken outdoors, under the shade of trees, listening to cicadas after a cool, refreshing minty drink. Phones or screens of any kind are prohibited.

I’m looking forward to snoozing this weekend to refresh and rejuvenate. What are your weekend plans?
