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

Walked my usual

six miles along the connect the route path. Lots of bunnies and deer out early this morning. This deer just stood there as a I walked by. The trees along one of the roads I cross were getting a good trim. One man was sitting in the truck, one man was cutting the trees, one man feeding the cut branches into the chipper, and 6 others were standing around. Six supervisors seem a bit much don't you think!?

Ken went over to the old house to throw away some more junk while I stayed home. I was going to start house cleaning. The only thing I did was a load of laundry. I worked on the car jigsaw puzzle for most of the morning after breakfast which I ate at 9:00.

In the afternoon we stopped in at the dentist to make appointments for the semi annual teeth cleaning. I used to really hate going to the dentist but I don't any more. Its nothing like it used to be!

Watched a Netflix selection of In Treatment and then since that is such a depressing show we watched an episode of Seinfeld as well. :-)

No ice cream tonight. We went to Mimi's Cafe for dinner and I saved my muffin for my snack tonight - a delicious blueberry muffin!!

Did a little reading and knitting too.
Now it's time for more reading before bed.
Hope your Wednesday was filled with sunshine.
Happyone :-)
What we give, more that what we have,
produces joy in our lives.

My mother really likes Mimi's blueberry muffins. We don't have a Mimi's near us, so I'm going to have to check out the cafe near their house the next time we visit. I agree that six supervisors for the tree trimmers seems to be a bit much.

Sounds like it was a good day. How cool to see the deer!

You've reminded me with this post that I need to call my dentist, too.

No sunshine in central Indiana today. It was unseasonably cool (66 degrees) with 90% humidity. Sunshine had to be found online today. :)

Sounds like a great day to me. Pretty deer. I need to start getting back in the habit of getting up at 4:45 to go for a run / walk. It is tough to set the alarm that early and follow through when I am not doing marathon training. :)

Love the picture of the deer. She seems very curious about you.

See what I mean? You're the regular deer whisperer or something! (I just had my dental exam and I think I must have an awful dentist as I still hate to go every single year. Maybe it's the chunk of change one leaves behind.)
