Left the house at 6:35 and it was 43 degrees and cloudy but looking
like rain so I wore my rain paints and yellow slicker.
It only rained for about 5 minutes during my walk.
Walked through town, up Barn Sale Rd, and down towards
Happy Trials, back through town, around the ball park loop
and one of the cemeteries.
When I got home I realized that I didn't take any pictures.
Guess nothing caught my eye.
When I got home the temperature had dropped to 40.
Walked 6 miles

Temperature dropped to the 30's and we had snow showers on and off
all day long. Thankfully it didn't amount to anything.
This it the picture I finished coloring at the library yesterday.
Picked up a couple books while at the library too.
Strawberry Shortcake Murder (book 2) by Joanne Fluke
and La Rose by Louise Erdrich which is next months book club selection.
This morning I left for church at 9:00 to meet with the other women for making
Baby Blankets. We now start earlier than we used to
and someone brings breakfast and another gives a devotional
before we start making the blankets.
Today there were 10 of us there.

Nothing sore today and I am perfectly fine.
My bruise is turning colors but it doesn't hurt at all.

I do like your colouring, you've used some lovely colours.
Pleased to read that after your fall you are healing and not sore at all.
All the best Jan
...snow showers on and off here today, right about now I'd love to see the sky the color of the baby blanket.
Beautiful coloring!
The baby blanket is so pretty. I love the shade of blue.
Hi Happyone, The baby blanket is very sweet! Did you know ... Almost every week for the last 4 years I have gone in to the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) at one of our big hospitals to help nurses and parents by holding babies for a few minutes to give them a break. I see all kinds of blankets and it is so wonderful that kind people donate them to the hospital. Thank you for sharing and your kindness! I hope you are having a great week! John
I like your baby blanket. Perhaps one day when thing settle down more I would try making it. I am not the best knitter but I try, lol. It sounds likes it is still quite cold where you are. Yesterday I think we might have turned the corner where I live. We've had two nice and sunny days in a row though still wawiting for the warmer temps.
I love the color of that blue blanket.
I wish I knew how to Knit. Just never could get the hang of it.

I'd be poor because I rarely ever praise people in public anyway, it all stays mostly up in the noggin. But I will complain and vent.
Hello, the blanket is a pretty color. I think I have read all of Flukes murder series with Hannah. The recipes in the book always sound yummy. Happy Friday, enjoy your day and weekend!
I'm glad you didn't hurt yourself seriously. I revisited the site of my fall (I tripped on a sidewalk that had buckled a couple of years ago) this week. I should have KICKED that old sidewalk while I was there! lol Take care of yourself sweet lady! Hugs!
I have yet to get a library card here since I moved. I keep meaning to do it. The blanket is such a pretty blue. Sounds pretty easy too. I might try it as I have lots of spare yarn. Have a blessed day.
