Blessed Freedom
Anybody who reads this on even a semi-regular basis probably knows by now that I have a tattoo. It's two weeks old today. Which means, apparently, that I can now take long, hot baths and go swimming.
Since our bathtub doesn't drain all that well right now, showering gets to be something like a long, hot bath, mostly for the feet. But I don't actually take soaking baths in the tub because we have four cats, all of whom get distressed if there is a closed door between them and myself for extended periods of time, but who also would want to join me on the edge of the tub if I didn't close the door. None of them, I hasten to add, are water cats. So baths in my house are not relaxing. I have no desire to sit naked in water with at least one complete set of claws teetering on the brink.
Consequently, the knowledge that I can soak now really doesn't do much for me, other than adding to my sense of freedom. Fewer restrictions.
