Sunday clears away the rust of the whole week.
Joseph Addison
Just settled myself in front of the TV to watch the rugby (New Zealand is about to slaughter Scotland) and started thinking about what makes the "perfect sunday".
For me, it's a real mix of a day. I always feel more relaxed - guess that's because Saturday is my day of chores. But it also marks the end of the weekend which I hate. I'm definately one of those people who live for their weekends. Sad, I know.
My perfect sunday would would start off lazily (knowing all chores had been completed the previous day). I enjoy snuggling up, chatting, savouring the first cup of tea of the day, getting intimate; and then when I can't put it off any longer, getting up.
It is then nice to get out the house, be it for a drive, a walk, and before returning home, getting the sunday papers. Then spending the afernoon reading with the papers spread out on the floor. What would make the scene perfect would be a roaring fire and pesky cats getting in the way!
The evening should be spent curled up on the sofa, preferably cuddled up to someone special.
So, far food hasn't been mentioned. I do enjoy my food but I'm not a big breakfast fan, I'd far rather have a full on roast dinner as a late lunch. Nothing beats a good o'l fashioned sunday roast with the trimmings. That's why sunday afternoons are created - for recovering!
What's your perfect sunday?
