Good Morning and Welcome to Thursday the 7th day of March, 2019.
YAY, another walk under our belts so to speak.
OMG, longest COLDEST winter in decades.
Last night there was a breeze that blew us around our walk and I felt the cold but Alvin all snug in his winter coat did not seem to feel it.
I guess the gust were more at my level, thankfully.
Another warmer day that the past few weeks on the way.
It has been cooling down at night but warming during the day.
We are so grateful.
About a week ago, the alarm clock that I had in the bedroom died a somewhat painful death as it would beep, flash and then work for a bit longer.
Poor thing did not want to give up.
It was not long after that that the battery died in my TIMEX Indiglo watch so that leaves us getting up on our own accord.
Now Mr. Alvin is known to be an early riser, more like middle of the night riser and for that matter I am starting to wake about 3:00 a.m.
Monday and Tuesday nights we had Humphrey over so we were in bed later than usual and then last night we hit the hay a bit earlier than usual.
So guess who woke up at 1:00 a.m. …… not me.
I managed to get him to settle back down for a few minutes but alas we were up and downstairs.
He went outside to pee (wished that he could use the indoor plumbing).
Then to the sofa for some sleep.
We were up another time or two but managed to get some good sleep before getting up to start our day.
Oh what crazy lives we lead.
I am so excited when I look out at the office window to see lightness in the eastern sky.
Looks so beautiful.
Dark blue running down to meet hints of yellow on the horizon.
I could lay on the ground and look at the sky all day and all night.
I love the morning and night sky the most.
If you are over the age of 50 you will appreciate the “getting up in the middle of the night.”
I am most grateful to be turning 62 this August.
I still cannot believe that I am 61, although my body reminds me on a regular basis.
My mind on the other hand keeps me somewhere in my 30’s with a smidgen of 50’s thrown into the mix.
I am most blessed to have friends and family of all ages.
Everyday I learn something new.
BRAINPOWER.
Keeping it real.
Or something.
Well time to hit the road ….. gotta pay the mortgage.
Although winning the group lotto at work this Friday would be GREAT.
NO MORTGAGE ….. perhaps a CAR…….can you imagine me with wheels of my own??
Yes, I can.
A girl can dream.
Have a wonderful Thursday.
Happy Thursday.
Special Hello to: my sister who keeps me younger …..
Always, Carol & Alvin
