Mid-October Friday

Tonight's picture shows a bee enjoying the fact that some of our flowers are having a fall blooming spell. Woody got up early and walked his four-mile route. I slept in late and really got my day mixed up. Woody went to the Credit Union and did part of our grocery shopping. I have done a little sewing on Abigail's birthday present. I mostly spent the afternoon cooking. I made enchiladas and chile relleno for our supper. Woody watched a library dvd this afternoon. It has been a pretty ho-hum day in the Dorrell household. Now on the other hand, some of the neighbors have had quite an interesting day...Graham and Abigail have been attempting to pick up the acorns in their backyard...they have gathered hundreds and put them in large containers...I think that they have counted them and weighed them. The sad thing is...that you can't tell that they have picked up any! This is really a bumper crop year for acorns! They wanted to know what Goosey (Woody) might pay them for picking acorns up. Goosey told them that they needed to talk to the squirrels! Oh, and, a report on the circus that they went to see last night...Joy (6) was very enthusiastic about the clown acts, Abigail (8) talked about acrobats, Graham (9 1/2) told about the motorcycle dare devils...and the best part of the circus for Elijah (2)...that the elephant pooped!!!! On that note...I will go back to sewing Abigail's birthday present!
