Friday

✿     ✿     ✿     ✿

It was a cloudy morning and 62 degrees as I started on my walk at 6:20.  Walked through town and down about a quarter mile past the turn off for HT and turned around.  Then went up Sale Barn Road.  No cows up in the field again there on the left.  The farmer must have moved them all to another field because I haven't seen them there for quite a while.

Someone stopped as I was walking and asked me if I ever get tired of walking.  Said he sees me all over the place.  Quite a few people have said that to me over the years.  Walking has become such a part of my morning that I really don't think anything of it.  I really could just keep on walking. : )

I saw the bobolinks out in the open field again this morning.  I see them along Sale Barn and along the farm loop too.  A deer ran out in front of me right across the road. I've been seeing quite a few deer along the side of the road that have gotten hit by cars.

Walked 5.3 miles.

Once again Ken went out for breakfast and then to the auction with Edd.   This has become his Friday routine.  Today though he didn't come home with anything.

I was happy to stay home and get some things done around the house.  When we go up to HT to work I still have to do my work back at home too so I like having some time on my own.  I finally got my car washed this morning.  It's been hard to find time when I'm home and it isn't raining.  It was cloudy and looked like rain but it didn't and it actually was great weather for car washing.  Without the sun on the car, I can dry it before the sun does which can leave water spots.

I got my ironing out of the way while watching a couple episodes of I Love Lucy.  Don't have much ironing to do anymore with Ken not working and I have a tendency to let it pile up.

Walked on over to the library to pick up a couple of books that were on hold for me.  Both books are book club books for July and August and I don't remember which is for what month so I'm just going to read the smallest one first.  Also picked up another book and two magazines.  It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow so I'll have my pick of what to read.  : )  Book club books are The Aviator's Wife and The Boston Girl.

Last year on 4th of July they started selling bricks to put around the Veterans Memorial with the names of people who served in the military, with the branch of service and years served.  I bought one for Ken, my Dad, my Step-Dad, and Ken's Dad.  They are now getting the area ready to put all the bricks in around the memorial which is right across the street from our house.

So that's been my day so far.  I think it's time for a little sitting out on the porch.  : )

Hope your Friday has been a happy one.
happyone : )

If you want to make an easy job seem mighty hard,

just keep putting off doing it.
