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

Day 30
SHAPES

Shapes on a quilt that is on my bed.
Wish I could say that I made it but I didn't.

What a beautiful morning for walking.
Lots of sunshine and 57 degrees with a slight breeze.

Walked around both of the cemeteries first.


Then stopped at the Jeep to pick up a book and a DVD and walked
over to the library to put them down the drop.
Flower pots at the library.


From there I walked all over town up and down all the streets
including around the ball park loop.
I usually talk to the chickens when I pass by but didn't say anything this time.
They all came running over to the fence to see me
as if to say, hey you didn't say hello. 
So I stopped to say hi and took this picture.


Rebecca was out walking Leo and also saw Anna and her dad Mark.

Haven't had pancakes in a while so made some for breakfast.

Took advantage of this sunny day and did a load of laundry.
Like looking out the window and seeing it blowing in the breeze.

A few house chores got done and then it was back to
my recipes.

๐ŸŒฎ    ๐Ÿฅ—    ๐Ÿฒ    ๐Ÿฅง

Will try to explain what I'm doing with them.
I have a blog with about 140 recipes on it.
Also have a binder with recipes written on all sorts of paper,
cards, and recipes cut of out magazines.
I have trouble putting them in specific categories 
because of overlapping categories.

Starting with the first recipe I put on my blog,
I'm numbering all of them.
Then putting the recipes in that order in the binder.
I'm printing out the recipes and putting them in clear plastic sleeves.
I'll have an index in the front of all the recipes and numbers.
Then I can search my blog for the recipe get the number and find it in the binder.

It is a big job and who knows how long it will take me.
I kind of want to get it done in a timely manner because I have
recipes scattered all over the floor in the office!!

I don't have all my recipes on my blog so will have left over recipes when
I'm done and I'll add those to my blog or
throw away recipes that I'll never make again.
The recipes I've never tried will go into another place until I try them.
Then they will either get put into the binder and blog or thrown out.
Hope it doesn't sound too confusing.

I thank you for stopping by.
Hope you enjoyed your day.

A cloudy morning for walking today.
62 degrees and a little windy.
Sunrise 6:14

Quite a few deer running around down the road from my house
going every which way.
Also a couple of rabbits, chipmunks, and a skunk.
Maybe they were all running away from the skunk. ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿฆจ

Walked back down the road I just drove up about a half mile
and then turned around and went back to town.
Continued straight through town,


and walked to the industrial park and walked all around in there.


By the time I got back to the pond I had all my steps in.

Quiet around town this morning and didn't see anyone else.

๐Ÿ˜Š    ☁️    ๐Ÿฅพ    ๐Ÿงข

Made the trip to Walmart this morning for food shopping
and had a couple other errands to do while in the area.

Home in time for lunch.
I had a baked sweet potato and some left over zucchini fries.
They heat up nice in the broiler.

Did a few things around the house and then it was back
working on my recipe organization.

After enough of that I read.

Thanks for coming by.
Hope you enjoyed your Wednesday.

Ginny and Michelle - The horse and cow are little planters (no hole to pour milk out of) and the deer is just a figurine.
