I started this blog to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 15 1/2 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. June 16th Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

In the Cool of the Day
Tonight's blog title tells the way we did things today...this morning while it was still reasonably cool. Woody walked four miles first thing knowing that it was going to be a hot day. After he got back home, he watered some of the gardens...again, knowing that it was going to be hot today. Then he did some weeding and mulching, but it wasn't long till he came in saying that was it for the day as far as outside work. He did go to the Life Care center and do Bible study with one of the residents. I got up and decided that I would cook while it was still cool. I had planned something that had to cook for 1 1/2 hours in the oven and didn't want to do it in the late afternoon. Since it got done before lunch, we decided that we would have our big meal at lunch and then we had BLT's for supper. I got the kitchen all cleaned up from my cooking and then put away some laundry. This afternoon I have mainly rested, read and visited with several of the grandchildren as they came in and out. Joy read to me from the book that she is reading for the summer reading program at the public library and Esther and Elijah played with K'nex for a while with Isaac watching them. It has seemed like a lazy summer afternoon and evening...the temperatures said that it could be summer (upper 80's)...but the calendar still says that it is spring...though for only about another week. Summer is definitely bearing down on us!
