This morning after the song of the day I got out of bed, reheated my rice bags, and crawled back under the covers and finished reading Alyssa Maxwell’s latest mystery, Murder at Vinland. At the very beginning I had strong ideas about two different things – and I was right about both! So that was fun.

After a shower and breakfast, I reluctantly attacked cleaning the driveway. The hill part had icy patches under the snow so I had to be extra careful. I got it all cleared except for the extra parking space at the top – ran out of steam for that. I threw salt on most of it and was glad to have it finished. I just checked outside before I started typing this, and a bit of a flurry stuck on some parts of the driveway — but I’m not going back out. We’ll see what morning brings.

I had lunch, then tackled a few inside chores. I first did my indoor exercises – managed for 15 minutes – then scrubbed the oven. I rubbed lemon oil on the kitchen table and the sleigh coffee table. They were really dry and that makes the scars show up more prominently.


Somehow my favorite Peanuts comic got rumpled, so I printed out a new copy and this time I put it in a frame. Perfect frame – since it’s a Peanuts one!

Then I found a movie on Hallmark that I never saw (it was enjoyable but not a favorite) and watched that while I caught up in my journal and did the ironing.

Di sent me a ‘saying of the day’ to add to the post. Being that we’ve been friends since the mid-60’s she can offer it confidently!

Scripture of the Day:

Peanuts?

TOMORROW January 12th is:
National Curried Chicken Day; National Hot Tea Day; National Kettlebell Day; National Marzipan Day; National Pharmacist Day; National Sunday Supper Day; National Youth Day; Remembrance Day; Work Harder Day; National Pizza Week.
I will for sure have a cup or two of hot tea – and know pretty certain several of my friends will, too – Gen? I think I forgot what I was supposed to remember — I’ll work harder at it. And some day this week I’ll have pizza. God bless…
