A rescued table

Today the temperature was up to 33 degrees.  I thought the sun was going to come out during my walk and I saw some blue sky for a while but then the clouds took over.  I walked my connect the path route with the trail behind the school.
I only saw a couple of other people out.

Two young deer were walking around in the woods and then a little farther up the path I saw an older deer, which I took to be their mom.  I told her the two little ones were coming along. : )
There were a few blue jays around and the best of all was seeing a couple of robins.  That means that spring can't be too far away.

My friend Lin called me while she was walking and we walked and talked for about a mile or so.  We talked while I walked along the trail behind the school and I have no memory of walking there.  That is why I never talk on my phone and drive!!      

It was great walking weather and today I took 12,990 steps.

After I finished eating breakfast I went with Ken over to the Savage house and we brought a few more things back home here.  I have an old Ethan Allen trestle table that we've had for 35 years.  It's been a kitchen table, a dinning room table, a work table and has been in the garage for the past 4 years.  It's been painted, stripped, stained and painted again.  I got the idea to put it up in my loft  to use when (if) I have sewing projects.
So Ken and I lugged it up three flights of stairs to the loft and here it sits in pieces against the wall.  I am going to paint the bottom pieces.  I have some pink paint left from when I painted the loft and will paint them pink. The top will keep its light stain.  Of course when I get it painted and put together I'll post a picture.  I guess not many people have a pink table to match pink walls. : )

While we were at Savage Lin, who I talked to this morning walked by and we got to talk again, this time in person. : )

I'm still working on that book I'm reading.  I just have a little more to go and will finish it later.  It's really good and I'll tell you about it once I'm done.

Ken is back over at Savage now getting the last truck load of stuff out of the garage.  We are thinking of making a trip up to Happy Trails in the morning to bring the stuff up there and to see how things are looking covered in snow.

Most of the clouds have moved along and left some room for the sun and blue sky to come through.  So nice to see some sunshine and the temperature is in the 40's.  : )

After supper we are going to the library.  I'm going to try very hard not to get out any more books!!
 
That's it for today.
Till next time........
A happy day to you.
Happyone : )

Let it go.

The troubles of yesterday should stay in the past.

Today is another chance to find hope in this world.

Magazines for me : )

The temperature was all the way up to 30 degrees this morning - almost a spring day. : )  It was a cloudy morning and no wind at all.
I walked on over to and around the lake again.  The people were few and widely scattered about.
The birds seemed to be doing more than their general morning chirping.  They seemed to be calling out to each other.  I saw quite a lot of cardinals.  I heard a couple of woodpeckers but never did see them.
These geese were enjoying eating some grass for breakfast.

One of the park squirrel made me smile.  As I walked past one of the trash cans out popped a squirrel with a plastic spoon in his mouth.

On the path to the lake which was flooded last week now has a lot of dirt on it.  I'm sure the park workers will be out there scraping it up soon because once it gets wet and turns into mud it can be just as slippery as ice.

I found a dime.
My walk today was 12,550 steps.

It was knitting day again so I left for the mill to make some more weave-it squares.  I was thinking about bringing some of the squares to sew but thought I might sew the wrong squares together talking so I didn't and made more 5 squares.
Last week I was talking about my sewing machine and that I was going to give sewing a try and one of my friends Elenore brought some old magazines she had and gave them to me.  Wasn't she nice?  Thanks so much Elenore.

There were 12 of us there today.

The rest of the afternoon I'll be hanging around home.  I'd like to finish the book I'm reading but probably won't until tomorrow.

It's been cloudy all day long and I do long for some sunshine.
Hope it's sunny where you are.
Till next time......
A happy day to you.
Happyone : )
