Things

Waiting thirty minutes or so for the water to heat…filling your bucket to the brim…scooping up the first ladle and pouring it slowly over you…experiencing the shift from scalding heat to pleasant warmth as your skin adjusts…letting the steam rise up from the bucket and envelop you…breathing in the warm saturated air…feeling cleansed and rejuvenated…I’m really starting to appreciate the simple pleasure of bucket baths.
