I should really go to bed, but I slept until like 2pm today so I'm so entirely not sleepy... It's past 4 here now.

I hope you can get things worked out Thorn.

Dropped in to make sure I'm real.  I think so.  I had my monthly massage today with new techniques, and after a geriatric nap (filled with lots of confused suggestive dreams, thanks to a combination of my own writing and a certain something I've been editing) it took about an hour of fumbling around, two cups of coffee, and dinner to re-adapt to reality, I hope.  A good night to all of you who are headed in that direction.  Thanks for the candle, @mollyhousemouse.  I always look forward to it.

I've been experiencing that the past few mornings. Wake up, and it takes about 45 mins, and 20oz of coffee to get functional.

Okay, I just heard the first morning metro train go by, so it's definitely bedtime. Goodnight, all! ❤️

millefleur    adjective | meel-FLER

Definition

: having an allover pattern of small flowers and plants

 

Millefleur (which can also be spelled millefleurs) came directly from French into English in the 17th century as a word for a perfume distilled from several different kinds of flowers. The literal meaning of mille fleurs in French is "a thousand flowers," so it is easy to see how millefleur came to be applied to patterns or backgrounds of many tiny flowers or plants. A similarly colorful extension of "a thousand flowers" can be seen in the word millefiori. That term, which refers to ornamental glass characterized by multicolored flower-like designs, comes from mille fiori, the Italian phrase meaning "a thousand flowers."

Not too bad, all things considered. Just woke up. Doing my 'morning Internetting' in bed before I get up to be useful.  Are you up to much?

Glad you're getting a proper holiday. You deserve a break.

Morning... I fell asleep with GA opened, and Word opened on the current chapter I'm working on. I didn't post anything to GA, but I did sleep write half a page of narration.

 

I hope it's a great morning for everyone.

I sometimes write half asleep as well. Oddly, sometimes it comes out really good.

Good morning everyone! 

 

The wind is fierce outside. I’m wishing I didn’t have to go out there.  

It is also the shortest day of the year so, there’s that... 

 

Have a great day all!

No, that's Friday. The winter solstice is on the 21st this year.  Now that I'm done being a pedantic little shit: Good morning! ❤️

And you know I thought it really was the 21st.  So more coffee for me.

that was wishful thinking,  Friday is probably a half day for you and start of the holiday break.
