Candlelight and Smiles

Is there anything more soothing than candlelight, music and the company of a great friend?

Well maybe the massage I had this afternoon which unknotted my shoulders at long last! Heaven. Not sure how long it will last with my current workload requiring many hours at my desk.

The wind howled all night, rattling the windows and whistling down the chimney. Strong coffee was required to get me through my video calls today but I kept smiling after such a lovely evening.
