Total Relaxation

When you think of total relaxation, what comes to mind?  Ok, you could probably ask 100 people and get 100 different answers to that question.  Tonight I found total relaxation with a little music, a glass of wine and a tub full of hot water (well it started out hot).  Ah sweet mystery of life!!!!!

I know, it sounds like heaven; and it really was quite nice.  Remember though that I am 6'1" and 225 pounds.  I displace a lot of water!  Additionally, our bath tub is not an 8 person hot tub.  It more closely resembles my dogs water bowl.  Choices have to be made.  Do I sit fairly upright and only my legs are in the water or do I scooch down in the tub and get my chest in the water.  Of course, if I do that then my legs are high and dry.  I chose to alternate between the two positions not realizing that the wet part of your body that is now out of the water gets cold real fast!!!!  Needless to say, I changed positions quickly.

Then there is the matter of an empty wine glass.  Crap, I knew I should've brought the bottle!  What was I thinking???  Even I can't picture me getting out of the tub and running dripping wet to the kitchen for a refill.  I did the only logical thing, I called the dog.  Is my dog the only dog in America that does not understand the command, "fetch the wine bottle"?

Oh well, I waited out the warm water refilling a couple of times, checked Facebook and sent a couple of emails all without dropping my iPad into the bath water.  Finally I climbed out and toweled off having enjoyed a nice relaxing bath. You should try it.
