The Honest Courtesan

After all the trouble I had getting my tub fixed, and after a winter much too cold to use it, it was really good to have a nice soak again!  I hurt my back a little last week moving furniture around (because despite appearances, I really am getting too old for that sort of thing); after that I went off for an overnight with Dr. Quest, and the day after I returned I had to clean up the house for Easter Sunday company.  So by Saturday evening I was tired and achy and badly in need of a relaxing soak in the spa.  The ambiance is really shaping up now; the lights overhead, the greenery, the decorated walls…it’s all contributing to creating the kind of atmosphere I’ve been aiming for, and once the stove is operational it should be even better.  So even though the cold weather is just about over for this year, I’m highly motivated to keep everything moving so next winter I don’t need to shut everything down for a four-month cold-weather hiatus!
