And, the title is not a distress call! May is here and 1/3 of the year is behind us. My main accomplishment today was grocery shopping and getting them put away. That didn't leave me with enough energy to do any more windows. I did get patriotic decorations downstairs. I still need to make the bunnies and eggs hop and roll back into their storage places. I did more with my sewing table…it is half for sewing projects (getting patriotic stitched pieces ready to display) and half for putting out things for the cruise. The turning up of the calendar page shows me the days left before cruising…all 31 of them. Lots will happen in these 31 days! I go back and forth between being excited and my stomach sinking!
By putting things for the cruise on the sewing table, I got my cameras out of my carry on bag…so I could take some pictures. A little while ago I went out to capture some of the blooms that have opened in the last few days. I was surprised with the small white irises in tonight's photo…I’m sure that they weren’t blooming yesterday…but then I was busy with windows so might not have noticed. I’m sure they weren’t open the day before. While I was outside I did pull a few weeds…but with this hole in my sinus passage, it isn't very comfortable to bend over…my excuse and I’m sticking to it! Another stack of papers got shredded today…that small stack was on the sewing table…so that helped clear the table! The vacuum got pushed a little more today. I’m working in "my room" (the family room) at the moment. I have a basket next to my recliner with reading material and note pads and clip boards…it's a place to keep them where I can grab them. Amongst the books I found a book that I may take on the cruise…I plan to have plenty of reading material on my phone and iPad (e-books), but I think I need to have one in my hand just in case technology fails me! I doubt if I have a lot of time to read…but I don't want to be without a book. This is a small paperback…so shouldn't weigh me down too much!
I’m waiting to talk to Melany to find out if she and Wade are coming tomorrow. She had mentioned they might, but we left it that we would see how each of us was feeling before we made that decision! She is supposed to call me back a little later. I’m thinking that it is about time to do some stitching.
To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
