Perfect Moment Monday is about noticing a perfect moment rather than creating one. Perfect moments can be momentous or ordinary or somewhere in between.
Please visit the links of the participants at the bottom.
Here’s a perfect moment from my week. I hope you’ll share yours, too.
====================================
Just a bath.
Both kids were on playdates. My healthy husband had gone for a run. And I found myself alone in the house on Halloween afternoon.
The housework was done (not all of it, never all of it, but enough to feel deserving of a treat). I gathered a book and a glass of wine, and was limited only by the temperature of the lavender-scented water.
Perfectly indulgent. ‘Cause I’m worth it (pardon the mingled slogans).

Here’s mine:
The evening before bed time… Sitting on my bed with three of my children… watching the snow fall. We open the window to feel the cold air… and they sing Christmas Carols… in October. That was a perfect moment! Especially since one of the singers was a teenager. How perfectly beautiful to have your boy still be excited about singing Christmas Carols.
Snow’s almost gone. In the 70s today.
I <3 Colorado.
sounds perfect — a warm bath with wine and a book. ahhh. you almost can forget all that snow on the ground.

That is so cool, or should I say so nice and Warm!?!
Thank so much for everything. ((HUGS))
One of my favorite favorite indulgences!
Isn’t it funny how something so simple can feel so decadent .. mostly because we rarely take the time for it. Glad you did.
OOoooohhh. That was by far the best Halloween treat! And to think you had wine left over from the snow storm.. perfect!
I’m with Sunny.. gonna bust out my ducky this week, too.

How perfect…a savoury moment spent in the pursuit of and thought of oneself.
Ahhhh… Calgon. Take me away.
That sounds so wonderful! You’ve inspired me, I’m going to take a bath sometime this week after my son goes to bed.

Ooh, sounds lovely!
That is a perfect moment for any day of the week.
The snow is almost gone already?!?! Now THAT is a good snow. Here long enough to enjoy and not so long it gets all nasty and dirty and a nusiance.

Well done. That is a fantastic moment.

With children, those Calgon moments do become fewer.

A warm bath is the most wonderful thing. Makes me wish we had a bathtub!
Now I have to go get cranking on my novel.
Thanks again for hosting Perfect Moment Monday.
Sounds wonderful.
Once again, you have inspired me.
I need to fire up my jacuzzi tub that i have never used since we moved in last summer. sounds heavenly.
Snow? 70′s? Hmmm . . . might be worth the trade off. We won’t see 70 for at least 5 more months.
The bath sounds WONDERFUL!
