Two perfect days here in the Midwest.
Both days had glorious special breezes (required for swell weather). Leaf breezes. Grass breezes. Sifting evergreen into the windows breezes. Even the ridiculous squirrels were stopping and popping on the sidewalk breezes.
The sky on both days were worth writing home about. But, less admit it, sky blue in and of itself isn't something special. There are a jillions blue shades that I prefer. Cobalt. Turquoise. Cerulean. Beany Malone bed room walls. My grandchildren's eyes.
But when the sky has the cloudy condiments in the usual blue it is damn well acceptable.
Yesterday was a sweet shopping day. Found each item: wooden clothes pins, the blue toilet tank bowl freshener, hot Oke Doke cheese popcorn, votive candles, key lime yoghurt, and the giant coral cactus I've been scouting for two months. Such a happy girl.
AND... I got to drive myself home in my precious Ancient Vehicle with two new tires!
Today I replanted plants. Met the PT chap. Spoke to five (FIVE!) of my favorite peoples. Watched the Children Parade which I've missed this summer. Made an almost perfect tuna sandwich. Realized how lucky I am to have the daughters, friends and grandchildren that I have. Especially today I am grateful
Oh, it got dark at 6:26 pm. If it stayed a bit lighter a bit longer....oh, yeah... I'm focusing on gratitude.
