50 things

 

This morning was even warmer than yesterday.

54 degrees with a mix of sun and clouds that quickly turned

to just clouds.  Quite a wind blowing up too.

Had a quiet walk around town, once around the cemeteries,

the ball park, and over to and around the industrial park.

Saw Margaret and Joy walking but at a distance.

The tiny horse was down near the bulls, and though

she wouldn't look at me I took a picture anyway.

Walked 6 miles

Bench Number 17

Taken by the Firefly, the place in town where they make cheese.

I peeked in the window at the store in its new location

and it is really nice inside.

Now it has room to have some tables inside and it all looks 

nice and neat and tidy.

Left for church right after breakfast for a work morning

of Blankets for Babies.

Handed in my latest blanket and started the one for next month.

There were 8 of us working today.

Someone brings breakfast and then another

gives a short devotional.

I ate breakfast at home so didn't eat anything.

Since it is Thanksgiving month, last time it was suggested

that we all tell something we are thankful for this time in place

of the devotional.

Instead of just naming one thing I thought I'd be different and made a list of 50 things I am thankful for.

Here's my list in no particular order except for number one

which I am MOST THANKFUL for.

On the way home from church it started to rain and has been

raining the rest of the day.

Had lunch when I got home and then made a few more 

weave-its and read.

Seemed like a good day for pizza so I got some pizza

dough made in the bread machine and as usual

Ken made the actual pizza.

Last night I finished knitting Ken his neck scarf that is just

a knitted cap without the top.

The first one I made didn't turn out, the yarn was too

stretchable and was soon out of shape.

This one I made is just right.

You can see it HERE.

Well that's going to be it for today.

Hope your day was a good one. 🙂

Thanks for stopping by.

Wednesday

 Warmed up quite a bit since yesterday morning.

Walking this morning it was 47 degrees, calm and cloudy.

Wore too many layers and had to take some off!!

Walked all around town as usual, and the cemeteries and

the ball park.

Joy was out walking also and we had a short chat in the cemetery.

Block as been delivered behind the bank as work continues

on the drive thru.

Saw a deer running through the field where the corn was.

The poor bulls are in quite a bit of mud now that it warmed

up again.  I couldn't even walk up to the fence because of the mud.

Farmer Marvin did put a bunch of hay down for them though.

Walked 6 miles

Bench Number 16

This one sits in the lower cemetery

☁️    🙂    ☁️

Sun came out later in the morning with a nice breeze so

got the sheets washed and hung out to dry.

Went out late morning to drop off our garbage at the dump.

There are 3 different dumps we can go to and we went to the

one in Grantsville this time.  First time we've been there.

We wanted to stop in at Candy Land which is in Grantsville too.

Candy Land has rows of bulk candy that you buy by the pound.

I usually stay away from that part of the store but Ken spends

some time picking out a bag of candy.

Fruits and vegetables are sold there too on the other side of the store.

They have spices and some speciality items too.

I should have taken a picture inside the store.

Next time I will.

We there today for Granny Smith apples to make either a pie or

an apple crisp for Thanksgiving.

We were home for lunch and then made another trip out

to go to the library.

Ken checked out two books and I got one.

After being out two times today I didn't feel like

doing work around the house so read and knitted.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hope your day was happy and bright. 🙂
