Mama and Martha left this morning, at which point I promptly got on the couch and watched all manner of HGTV and Food Network programming. After a little bit of lunch and two more episodes of “Barefoot Contessa,” Alex and I took a four-hour nap.
FOUR HOURS.
Not that we were tired or anything.
Just a second ago I checked my email for the first time in a couple of days, and I found a note from Big Mama. Since the last time she had heard from me was yesterday afternoon, when I was headed to Goody’s with Martha, she was somewhat concerned that during my shopping excursion I had gotten entangled with a poly-blend pantsuit and been unable to escape.
But I made it out alive.
So I’m about to cook all the fixins for tomorrow’s praise team breakfast at church, and when I finish, I’ll be back with a story or two from our YeeHaw Mamaw visit.
Also: after today’s nap-a-thon, I can officially report that I haven’t been this rested since 2002.
Life is good.
awwwwwwwwww a four hour nap….sigh…those are the days! :)
A what? A 4 hour nap? I know not what you speak of… never heard of such a thing :)

Yeehaw Mamaw visit. I can’t think of anything that sounds more fun!
So glad you made an escape from the pantsuit. We would have called a search party for sure.

Four hours? THat’s half the night. Now you have to stay up until 4:00….:-)
Sigh…Mamaw. That’s what we called my mom…and she was a Southern Yee Haw. :)
When I had grandchildren, I asked to be called Grammie for there was only one Mamaw in this family.
Good nap, sounds like your body knew exactly what you needed…a nap and the Contessa…does it get any better than that?
i love barefoot contessa. and i want all of her hydrangea bushes outside of her lovely home.

I’m jealous. A 4-hr nap.
We have a soccer tournament this weekend and all 3 of my kids are playing.
That means 6 games total a day!
I want a 4-hr nap! :)

A four hour nap? That is amazing. And breakfast for the praise team tomorrow? You are amazing!
