Just hanging In

 I've been moving from one activity to another today.  Favorite one was to take a nap.  Yeah, it's a busy life for me.  I went down to the library and brought up five books. Always makes me feel better to come back from the library with books in hand.  Even if the library is just the retirement building library.  There's a  lot there and I had the place to myself.  I've been reading Tommyknockers by Stephen King but it was kind of pulling me down and I decided I needed a diversion. The books I picked up included:

The sky is falling by Sidney Sheldon; An object of Beauty by Steve Martin; Old Friends by Tracy Kidder; The Winner by David Baldacci, and Masterpieces of Murder by Agatha Christie.  I'm actually kind of looking forward to digging into them tomorrow.

Other activities today included crossword puzzle, jigsaw puzzle, and strip sewing some crumb quilt pieces. I've got everything set up in the living room so I can just leave it in place and skip to something else when the mood strikes.  Had the news on tv but it's just one damn commercial after another and I'm not in the mood. Like Leaf Gard. Sick of that one. And Medicare insurance to get all the benefits we have coming in this pandemic. 

My flicker bird returned to pick at the metal under the eaves on my window so I went outside to get a picture.


Exciting, huh?

Waiting for dinner to be delivered. Today it's wonton soup, chicken oriental salad, and pineapple upside down cake. 



I've been watching The Crown on Netflix and really enjoying it. I've only got two episodes left of Season 4 and then I'll have to hunt around for something else.  Oh, life is tough sometimes.

Tomorrow I may go out and fill up the car with gas, just to have something to do and a place to go. Might as well stop at Penny Saver and get my lotto ticket too. And then there's Safeway where I probably need to buy some ice cream. I bought this stuff called Salted Caramel Pretzel but I'm not caring that much for it.  Too salty for me so I'll give it to my neighbor and go back and get the old standby of vanilla with chocolate sauce on the side.  Or not.  I have noticed some of my pants are getting a tad tight. Maybe I'd better buy some carrots instead. Yeah, like that's gonna' happen!

Here's a cute thing I saw on Facebook made with stones and twigs.
