Ambrosia (what a name!?) opened her eyes and looked out her bedroom window to see green leaves and to hear birds singing merrily. She smiled serenely as she stretched her sun-drenched, sleep-warmed body. Time to get out of nice warm bed and into the world. Good thing there was nothing to do today. Sunday, relaxation day, no work, lots of time laze around.
Crawling slowly down off the four poster bed she set her feet on the floor, surprised to find that it wasn't as cold as she was expecting it to be. She stood right in a shaft of sunlight. Not surprising considering it was almost one in the afternoon.
She went to the bathroom, stark naked, brushed her teeth and showered quickly. She took a towel from the rack and slowly smoothed it over her body drying the shower and soap off of her. She stalked back to her bedroom, naked once more, and went looking for something to wear.
Finding that her favorite jeans, shirt and undergarments had to be washed she slid into a blue thong and man's white button down shirt. She scooped up her favorites and slowly made her way downstairs and to the laundry room.
Turning the knob to the desired setting she added a large scoop of lemon scented detergent. She loaded the clothes and went up to the kitchen for breakfast. Orange juice and Count Chocula cereal. Always a good combination. She put her feet up on the chair across from her and brought her bowl up under her chin and began to eat her cereal, once and a while reaching for a drink of juice.
It didn't take long to eat, almost as long as it took the washer to get to rinse. Time for liquid softener. She put her dishes in the sink and filled them with water. "I'll just do them later with the supper dishes. No hurry."
She took her time going to the laundry room, just as she entered it hit the end of the rinse cycle. She opened the lid and dumped in a big splash of liquid softener. Just as she closed the lid and reached back to put the bottle of softener, she felt a hand on the back of her neck.
