A stop at the library!!

No snack for me last evening.  I hate to admit it but I've gained a few pounds over the holiday.  I don't usually do that but this year, well I just ate too much. :-(   I don't believe in diets so I thought if I only have a snack every other evening for a while that should get rid of those extra pounds.  I had a cup of tea last night for my snack. So tonight I get to have a snack and I'm telling you, I'm really looking forward to it!!!

This morning it was a chilly 14 degrees when I started out on my walk!  No wind so it really didn't feel like it was that cold.  If felt no colder than yesterday. I walked around the lake.  There were a few more people out today than yesterday but still a pretty quiet walk.  I saw a couple of rabbits - haven't seen any of those for some time.  As soon as they saw me they both hopped into the woods.  I didn't see the frozen snake today.  Maybe he thawed out when it warmed up yesterday and crawled away. :-)  From yesterdays comments it appears many of you don't like snakes.  I kind of like snakes. The Black snake is a good snake which eats mice which is good.  We had a four feet Black snake that lived in the crawl space at the old house who kept the mice out of our house! :-)
I enjoyed my nice cold brisk morning walk.
Todays trek was 6.5 miles.

I never seem to have enough time in the morning to do all the things I want to get done before I have to leave for my knitting group on Tuesday mornings so it's a bit of a rush on Tuesdays.  I didn't even have time to make the bed today.  So I just had to finish up my morning chores in the afternoon.

I had to make stop at the library to pick up an audio book that I had on hold.  You are not going to believe what I did!!  After saying yesterday that I wanted to make a dent in the books that I have at home to read, I found four books that I wanted to read!! When I went up to the counter to check out, not only was the audio book there but another book I had on hold was ready as well.  So I came home with six books!!  AND I already have two other books from the library that I am currently reading!!!  I am just about done with one of them though.  I guess you know what I'll be doing later!

Kim, you were wondering about Honey Bunch Books I mentioned yesterday.  Click HERE to read more about them.

Well, it's time to go and get a few other things done around the house before I can sit down and finish that book. 

Hope you had lots to smile about today.
A smile from me to you.
Happyone :-)

I doubt whether the world holds for anyone a more 

soul-stirring surprise

than the first adventure with ice cream.
