. . . had a radical change of plans as to the structure of my day.
. . . had a wonderful breakfast at a friend's restaurant with time to chat with her.
. . . stopped in at the little post office in the part of the county where we first lived when we moved up here --- nostalgia, homesickness --- waaaah.
. . . made a huge pot (vat!) of chili -- used the proportions for the recipe I made when I had the restaurant.
. . . cleaned the whole stove top, wall behind stove and side of refrigerator --- chili burbled a little too vigorously at one point.
. . . went to our local library, never have enough time to leisurely spend there --- I love that place.
. . . was getting anxious for our two granddogs to go home so I can thoroughly clean --- three dogs equal too much dog hair in one house.
. . . ate too much --- and realized I don't feel well when I eat too much.
. . . did an errand my husband was planning on doing which prompted him to say, "Aww, what a sweetie!”
. . . procrastinated yet again and avoided for another day balancing the checkbook and reconciling bank statements.
. . . thought about our daughter and FSIL about a hundred different times wondering if they were still snowbound in
. . . failed to call and make two appointments I should have.
. . . delivered eggs on my daughter's egg route.
. . . wondered how anyone with a personality equivalent to that of a can of worms could get and keep a job in the service industry.
. . . thought, for about the 5th day in a row, that I should get out my Easter decorations.
. . . was going to go to bed early --- how the heck did 11 o'clock come so soon?

Good grief - what a busy day!
It's a darn good thing you're retired!
(there, now I got it right and don't have to delete it again!)
But you know, Ruthie, it didn't really FEEL like a busy day. I think if any of us actually listed what we do in a day's time, we'd know why we're tired at the end of it! But I, for one, wouldn't have it any other way.
This is a Euphorbia Trigona (three sides). My dad said if anyone would know, I might be the person. He was right. If you can't find one to purchase, let me know and I will send one out ASAP.
Love,
Kristen (Steinbrecher) Kabler
