What a gloomy, gloomy day. It is literally gray outside. Not the fall gray that is beautiful with scattered leaves all around of all different colors. I love that gray when there are specks of yellow, orange, and red all over. When the hot smoldering summer starts to slowly morph into those days where it’s too warm for a jacket but cool enough for a sweater. Nope this gray is the icky, make your bones creak, stay in bed gray that no one likes. I swear it’s enough to throw any sane person into a deep, deep depression.
I suppose it could be the fact that the boys and I just spent a great week together doing absolutely nothing and everything. There was no differentiating between bedtime and rise and shine time. Most nights were spent just hanging out, watching movies, or playing games until the wee hours. There was no set time for wake ups. We got up and took the dogs out at around six and then it would be back to bed until whenever. It was nice to be lazy for a week and not worry about much. It was nice playing, cooking, and cleaning with the boys. We had so many great conversations and a ton of laughs.
One of the things that we did was watch an old stand up act of Bill Cosby. We all laughed and laughed. At one point I laughed so hard I was crying. I hadn’t watched it in years and it felt like the first time watching it again. I wish that more comedians today had clean stand up shows for the kids that they could enjoy. My boys also watch all the old reruns of the Cosby Show that come on. I have fond memories of the show and am so happy that my children will as well.
