a restful holiday

i am taking it slow this holiday weekend. i had a minor medical procedure done last week (non-illness related, and all is well). so i am using it an excuse to lie on the deck, as for the parasol to be adjusted as the sun moves, call for lattes and watermelon smoothies, and catch up on my reading. have i earned all this? do i care?
