I started the morning off by bringing my bowl of fruit & nuts along with a BIG mug of coffee into the living room. I am most comfortable in my big recliner, and I keep a portable heater in front of me to stay warm. I don't think I had two bites of my breakfast when I set the bowl on the end table next to the chair, and my arm bumped something that fell on the floor. It was my full mug of coffee. I made a few profane pronouncements while I ran for a roll of paper towels. It took me about 15 minutes - coffee was everywhere, under the chair, around and seeping under the table, the floor lamp, and power supply bar that I plug everything in to, etc. I cleaned it all up and the worst part is losing that wonderful coffee. I'm thinking about making more coffee, maybe just up to the 2 cup line which should nearly fill the mug.
My "baby" (Joe) is going to be 39 tomorrow. It's hard to believe so many years have passed since he was born. We brought him home in a snowstorm, and stopped by my mom & dad's house to show him off - they were so happy to see him but frantic that we were driving in snow, so they urged us to get him home. Driving in snow never bothered me back then, although ice was another matter.
I've about decided to turn my house furnace on but remember that last year I couldn't get it to work, so I called the power company. The agent who came out couldn't get it to run either, and I ended up having to call an HVAC guy to do it. Maybe it will work for me this year. I'm not freezing but it is chilly unless I'm really busy, and busyness is a rare thing for me anymore.
Does anyone else feel like they are drowning in paper? I don't like to throw things away because that is when I will need something I've discarded. The result is that I have paperwork everywhere. There was a time when I was so organized, but then I had a file cabinet next to my computer and it was easy to keep things in order. To make matters worse I think my paper shredder has died, and I need to get a new one before I'm buried in papers!
I just opened the door and think it is much warmer outdoors than it is inside my house. I hope some of that warm air seeps inside!

I must be pretty distracted this morning. I washed my hair in the shower and decided to use a drop of conditioner, which I don't do very often. It is made from hemp and I love the way it makes my hair glisten. But this morning I...
- We Finaly Got Rain!
Probably not much rainfall, but what we got is sure welcome. The temps won't get out of the upper 50's today and I'm chilled, but when I go out in a few minutes I will be able to wear a new rain jacket I bought. It is warm even...

I drove over to Jeannie's this morning for coffee and some tasty cookies. We sat around and worked the NY Times crossword puzzle, and talked about getting an assembly line together to make tamales. It would be so much easier than one person...

I just went outside to get my mail and walked into a beautiful sunny afternoon! Though we desperately need rain, I am happy to see the sun, especially right now. This morning was very chilly, and I hurried to the kitchen to start my coffee maker. ...
