Satisfying Sunny Saturday

I did not sleep in this morning like I thought that I might but I felt pretty rested so when I went downstairs and made myself some hash browns, a couple of eggs and some toast. Then I unloaded the dishwasher and loaded the dishes from last night and my breakfast dishes. Since I used two pans for my breakfast I also washed them.


I had a couple water jugs of water that I set out last night so that I could change the beta's water as it was getting pretty green, so I did that and then went and read the paper. After finishing the paper, I thought that I would go for a walk as Kathleen had just gotten up.

So I went upstairs and told her and then took off for a couple hours. I met a friend and her daughter from church and talked to her for a while and then continued to pick up trash. With the wind blowing as much as it has the last couple days, the trash from the fast food places was all over the place. I filled up five bags of trash this morning and it was about 1130 by the time I got home.

Kathleen still had not gotten dressed yet, so I made myself a brot on a whole wheat bun. After I finished eating lunch I decided to call my Mother to see how she was doing. I had not had time to call this week as I had been working on the upstairs bathroom all week. After talking to Mom and Sue for about forty-five minutes I decided to go outside and do some work...I just could not see staying inside waiting for Kathleen to get dressed.

I spent until 1630 chipping and shredding branches, fir cones and walnut shells. I tried to do some of the branches from the hedge, but they were in my barrel and were just too wet, they kept clogging up the works as they would stick to the shoot and cause it to stall, so I just decided to wait on them until some other time.

By the time I got done and cleaned up Kathleen was ready to go, but I was just too tired and my feet were sore from being on them so long. So Kathleen has taken off now and I am not sure what we are going to have for dinner.

Well, this is a little early, but I am just tired enough that I wanted to get this done before I get too tired later on tonight. I did not get a lot done today, but I feel satisfied, so I am just going to say good night now.
