What I will miss...


My house is on the market and unfortunately there hasn't been much luck getting it to sale. I am so ready for it to be sold and to be done with it, but today I was thinking about that. There is one part of my house that I am going to miss sooooo much.
It is not a part most people would proably consider that important, especially in this time of quick readiness and showers. You guessed it...It is my bathtub. When we built it I was very adament that I wanted a jet tub so I could relax in it. And was that ever one of my best choices.
Tonight I was thinking about it because I was using it. Let me explain the ritual I have when I use this tub. First, I have to make sure that I have candles lit and the lights turned off. This helps to create that relaxing atmosphere that I lack in all the other areas of my life. And of course I have to have my ipod with me. Lights out, ipod blaring, and occasionally a good glass of wine helps to make it relaxing.
So tonight as I was soaking and belting out Norah Jones, I was thinking how I would miss that bathtub. I have done lots of thinking, discovered some of my favorite songs, had a few good crys, and learned about myself there. It's is wierd that of everywhere in my house, this is one place that I deem most important. I think it is because when I am in the bathtub it is "me" time. I do not have to worry about anything else! I will miss singing, thinking, and reflecting while soaking in that wondefully relaxing tub!
