Baths of time and peace

baths... well they are my love, i have had a bath a day for a year
turn the hot water on...put lavender oil in....turn cold tap on...wait(ussually i go and pig out on chocolate biscuts at this time) turn water off and precede.
for those that have never had baths YOU ARE MISSING OUT!!!!!
this is how the magic works,
you lay in the bath and read a good book leaving your phone on the ledge beside you to relpy to the occasional text message. THE TIME FLYS!!! it is warm and befor you know it your book is fallling over the side and your being woken up by i violent knock on the door from a mother that thinks you may have drowned.

one bad experience i have had with a bath,
it had been quite a warm day but i feel the cold so i decided to have a bath to warm up...little did i know that the pressure in the cold tap had droped from all the water use and when i steped in my toes nearly shrivled up and died from the 3rd degree burns they had suffered (slight exageration) well i quickly turned on the cold tap and stood next to it untill the water had cooled down enough to sit down (reminder once feet are burned they dont sence the heat as well) so i sat down, the water still being quite hot (hotter that i realised, evidently) and preceded to read my book for about an hour.....starting to feel suprisingly warm i got out and promptly fell over..
i had given myself heat stroke and had to lay on the floor going in and out of conciousness for over an hour.


anywho, the main message... baths are the batteries of my soul (but must be treated with caution)
