Actually, there’s not been much activity from me this fine day, but the pooches have been quite playful and energetic. The Colonel even engaged the not so mobile Chief in a good deal of play. It’s great to see The Old Boy, who battles hip issues, pretending to be a few years younger. Now, they’re all spread out around the deck with Col. Deeds right by Chief’s side.

I read a newly acquired book on The 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair while keeping a castor oil pack and heating pad on my left shoulder that I injured last winter while lifting some heavy boxes. I’ve been relaxing to various documentaries and enjoying the antics provided by The FabFive.

Lunch was on the deck and now I am resting, again, enjoying this non-rainy day. The darker morning seemed to threaten rain at any moment but it has cleared, leaving us with a sunny, yet overcast sky. It is quite comfortable on the deck.

I plan to work on my project’s outline while enjoying time outside until it’s time for my regular Wednesday dinner with Laura and Mama Kay. I am sure I will give in to a nap during that process.

The cardinals and several other chatty birds are loud, but I’m glad they’re piping along. A nice breeze, tuneful birds, the whir of traffic on the Shroyer Road side of The Haasienda make for a beautiful day.

Make it a great day!
