100 Days of Wonder – 79
I haven’t written about music so far. We are both still full of cold so we curled up on the sofa and watched a documentary about John Williams the composer. Turns out that he wrote to score to pretty much every iconic film of my life. So while not Disney as such there’s enough of a link to share this picture with you. Listening to the music made me smile, remembering the films made me smile and then thinking about walking around Hollywood Studios in less than a month made me smile!
100 Days of Wonder – #78
Happy 3rd Sunday of Advent. I have added the Hollywood Studios Christmas tree to the Magic Kingdom and Wilderness Lodge ones. This one’s not my photo but a Disney stock photo that came as part of one of our photo pass downloads.
I am spending today mostly curled up under a blanket with cats for company. I have this stupid cold but I also have our tree full of stories to recall and smile about, mince pies to eat and whole load of Disney TV, old and new, to get lost in. I hope you have a restful and peaceful Sunday too
100 Days of Wonder – #77
There is a Disney Dwarf for every mood. Here’s a picture of my Christmas jumper (I also have a Christmas T-shirt and shirt – both Mickey Mouse) which captures today’s mood well. I am grumpy because I am watching FC St Pauli lose to Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga, because today hasn’t gone to plan, because I haven’t done my long run and because I have a cold. I also have ridiculous period pains and am generally a bit rage-y. Neither of us are feeling well enough to run. In fact we just walked down to the post office to post Christmas cards and then to the vet to pick up some tablets for Einstein-cat and were both wiped out when we got back.
So I am trying to just accept the fact that I have a cold and that my body is an interesting hormonal mess these days and just focus on what I can do. So I have sorted some more Christmas stuff, wrapped a couple of presents and finished the decorations in the dining room. I made some mince pies that have turned out quite well and when I was sat on the floor earlier wondering what the hell I was doing there (I think I just hadn’t got up yet from wrapping presents but who knows), I did some gentle stretching. So overall I am not actually unhappy being grumpy. Sometimes grumpy is good. And I do like my jumper. It makes me smile and I wore it to do the College visit the other day and it made lots of other people smile too. So maybe there is joy to be found in being grumpy sometimes.
