Grateful for Snuggle Time: Day 16

Posted on December 16, 2013 by Cheryl Harris

peace love and kittehsA few years ago, we instituted snuggle time at Casa de Harris. When I first get home,I’ll go to the futon, call the dudes (feline and human) and relax for a while. For the record, the cats come when called. Mr. Dude does not always show up as promptly. Free will is definitely overrated, I tell ya!

I love snuggle time. It gives me a nice transition from the crazy of driving or working into more peaceful moments, and helps me unload whatever I don’t need. Sometimes I share what I’m grateful for and not-so-gently nudge Mr. Dude to do the same, but that’s more hit or miss.

I feel so much better if I take 10 minutes to give and receive love, and it makes my day brighter. It really helps me regroup, and clearly the furry dudes value it as well.OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

About Cheryl Harris

Life played a funny trick on me. I've studied nutrition for years, and much to my surprise, found out that I could manage many of my health issues via diet. I've been GF for years, and I've got a bunch of allergies and sensitivities. But it definitely doesn't keep me from cooking, baking and enjoying my food. Thanks for stopping by.

    That is such a lovely idea! I think I need to start initiating this time into my day when I get home. I could totally initiate kitty snuggle time! What a lovely and peaceful idea Cheryl! And I really do love this picture of you!
