Boredom = Good Day for Grammy!

We woke up to rain this morning. The rain started sometime after midnight and continued most of the morning. We got over a half an inch of rain...a nice steady rain. The rain kept Woody from his morning walk, but he did run errands (in the car) and stopped at the community center to spin on the stationary bike for a while. He also stopped at the Credit Union and then went to WalMart. He has covered some of our plants as there is a freeze warning out for the wee hours of the morning. The high today was only 48F. I have stayed in all day...but have still felt the chill that is settling on us once again.

Now...for the explanation for tonight's title. I think that I had better explain since at another time I mentioned that "bored" or "boredom" aren't words that I allow in my vocabulary...or in my children's when they were small or in my grandchildren's when they are here with me. But today when my cell phone rang and I saw that it was our oldest granddaughter calling I was glad to hear that she was bored...that resulted in a nice phone call from her! She was through with classes for the day and nothing else was happening so she decided to call her grammy...made my day! Late this afternoon I made homemade chicken noodle soup...really hit the spot on this chilly day. At the moment the 7th game of the World Series is on TV and that is occupying Woody. His team pulled it out in the 9th last night to make tonight's 7th game happen. Time will tell if Woody is a happy camper at the end of this last game of "The 2011 Series!"
