A Fine Friday

I got up earlier than I thought...I miss read the clock and thought that it was an hour later than it actually was. I probably would not have gotten back to sleep anyway, but it would have been nice to have tried. For some reason I looked at the clock and thought it was 0700, but it was only 0600, so once I was up, I was up!


I tried something a little different again this morning, I made myself breakfast, then went outside and watered the berries and the roses, and then I went inside and read the paper. No special reason for doing it, just trying to break up the monotony of my usual daily routine.

Anyway as I was finishing the paper the mail came, so I opened it, but about the only thing worth keeping were a couple checks for insurance refund and my Woodcraft catalog. So after recycling the mail and the paper, I told Kathleen that I was going to take a walk, so I took off and walked a couple miles and then came home and sat down and relaxed.

Before I realized it, it was 1345, so I though that I had better make myself some lunch. I had not made myself a salad for about a week, so it was sounding pretty good. I opened the refrigerator draw where we keep the salad fixings, and remembered why I had not made myself a salad.

There was a couple leafs of Romaine lettuce and some spring mix, a mix of different greens, some yellow pepper, a couple radishes, half a cucumber, some pretty dried up mushrooms and some parsley, but there was no green onion and now there is really not much to make another salad with.

So I think that we will need to go to the grocery store before too much longer. It seems like the produce spoils faster than I think that it should, but I guess that has to do more with the time of year that it is.

Realizing that I had a discipleship meeting tomorrow morning at church, I thought that I had better start up the old Wrangler, just to see if it would start up. I have not driven it for probably at least three weeks, but when cranked it over it started right up. So I drove it out of the garage just to have it out and not have to worry about it tomorrow morning.

About all I got done this afternoon was to look at my Woodcraft catalog, and then doze in my chair. Then about 1630, I turned on the local news and at 1700 I switched to Fox news, I seem to agree more politically with their coverage than I do any of the big three network news.

Kathleen made Ravioli for dinner tonight, one of my more favorite meals. She is feeling better today, but she is still really tired. Well, I think that covered the high lights and some of the low lights of my day, so I will just say good night.

Please come over and help yourself to some of our lettuce. I can't eat it all and it's just going to go to waste.
