I walked for just a little over an hour, although part of that time I spent picking up trash at the high school. I was a little surprised at the amount of trash today, seeing how yesterday was a holiday and there were no school activities. It will be interesting to see what there is tomorrow now that school is back in session.
When I got home I made myself an egg beater omelet and some toast for breakfast. When I got done I emptied the dishwasher and then put my breakfast dishes in. I also did the hand washing and cleaned up the sink.
Then I went into the living room and read the paper. When I finished it, I put it in the recycling bin up front and then went outside and finished preparing the ground where I am planning on planting the clematis. When I was about half way through, Kathleen came outside with some coffee and a brownie for a mid-morning snack.
The ground was surprisingly hard even though I broke most of it up yesterday with my pick ax so I did not get anything done other than that. I was going to bring out my rototiller and really break up the ground, but it looked like it was going to start raining again so I decided to just put everything away and finish it up another day.
Shortly after I got cleaned up the mail came, so I got it and sat down, opened it and looked through it. I got my refund check from the insurance company, a couple bills and the confirmation of my stock sales and buying. I think I sold about $75,000.00 of one stock and bought the same amount of another. This making money is almost like work!
Since I got the insurance check I decided that I needed to go to the credit union and deposit it along with two checks fro two different doctor's offices of over payment and then I had $150.00 in cash to deposit. I really hate carrying around that much cash so I was glad to get rid of it.
After I finished at the credit union, Kathleen wanted to stop off at Home Depot to look at a couple things; we got out of there for under $20.00, not bad for us. Then she wanted to stop off at the Barn to get some fresh corn and a watermelon, we have been going through two or three a week. Kathleen has been eating most of them.
After the Barn she wanted to stop at the Orowheat Bakery Outlet to get some rolls. Well, we did not just get rolls; we got two shopping bags full of stuff. When we finally got home, I changed clothes and then helped myself a buttermilk donut since I had not had lunch again today.
For dinner Kathleen reheated some more of the left overs from Giuseppe's; that was the third meal we have had and there is enough for one more meal. Well, I fell pretty tired tonight, I think it probably has more to do with the change in the weather than anything else, but I am tired none the less.
So with that said, I am going to say good night!

Tuesday's Turn About
Sometime during the night it started to rain and it was just finishing up when I got up this morning. It was kind of nice to have the rain; it has been so dry it was nice not to have to water for a couple of days. I wore my hat when I started out on my walk, although I did not really need it.
