Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Puzzle Season

A few snow showers around this morning 
but it didn't amount to anything.
It was 33 degrees with a little breeze.

No order to my walk this morning.
I usually have some kind of route when I head out in mind
but not today, it was very random all over the place.

The fire alarm went off and then I saw
the rescue truck go out of town with lights and siren.


Not much snow around.


But there was enough to draw a smily face.
It is on the top of a post and it reminds me of a pumpkin.


Thought this leaf was pretty with all the different colors.


No one else out this morning, at least not while I was out.

🙂     🥾    🍁

Went to the library this morning to meet the stitching ladies.
7 of us there and another new person, Dawn joined us.

A few snow showers through the morning
 which gave us a little dusting but it didn't last long.
But still enough for us to get Puzzle Season started.  😊🧩🌨️

This is the first puzzle of the season.
One of our new ones.
Garden Center


All the pieces are out and I got the border finished this afternoon.


That's been my day.
A happy Saturday to you.
Thanks for coming by.

A mouse


 This morning it was 34 degrees, cloudy, and breezy for walking.

Walked all over town, the cemeteries, ball park and new road loop.


Didn't see anyone else out walking and it was very quiet around town,
Felt more like a Saturday morning than a week day.

Was walking down where KitKat lives when I saw him make 
a leap up in the air from out of the high grass.
When he walked out of the grass he had a mouse.
He walked by looking so proud of himself.
I told him he was a good boy and off he went towards home.

😊    ☁️    🐕

Left for church after breakfast again for another day of Fingerprints.
Not as many people as yesterday but still a good number.
When it was all said and done for the two days work
we assembled, stapled, cut, and boxed up 
8,539 Romans books.
Next month we only have to do about 6,000 to meet our
goal of 100,000.
Pretty sure we will surpass that.

So that's what kept us busy today.
Pizza dough is now rising and very much looking forward to pizza.

Thanks for stopping by.
Hope you had a wonderful day.

Dianna - Yes, puzzle is out sitting on the hutch all set for us to start it as soon as the snow falls.  Feels like snow is in the air. 🌨️ 🙂

Ellen - No, it wasn't cold in the activity center.  I thought it was very comfortable.  A lot of the women are always cold though.

Raining and a Work Day

 A rainy walk for me this morning.
44 degrees but there was no wind.
The raincoat I wear is one like the road workers wear.
I was going to get the pants too but thought it would be a bit much!


Walked around in town and both cemeteries, the new road,
and the ball park.

Rebecca was out again.
Nothing happening today in the early morning rain.

😊    🌧    🥾

Fingerprints work day again.
If it seems like we just did, it is because we usually have
it on the fourth Thursday of the month, but this month it would
have been on Thanksgiving.
So we've been at church all day working.
A pretty good turn out.


I didn't get a count of how many books  we did but we have 
another work day tomorrow and will total it up then.

We called out for fried chicken and coleslaw for supper from
a local grocery store.
mmm good

Thanks for stopping by.
Hope you had a wonderful Thursday.
HappyK😊❤️
