Good Morning and Welcome to Saturday the 6th day of August, 2016.
The sun is shining.
The morning air still has a crispness to it with the coolness of the breeze.
I can hear magpies squawking away.
There is a hum of traffic from the highway that goes around our city.
This is Saturday morning in Edmonton.
My house is quiet except for the clicking sound from the keyboard as I type these words.
Alvin is curled up at the end of our bed waiting patiently for me to finish and get this day going.
Last night we watched part of the open ceremonies from Rio De Janeiro ….. very colourful and different.
I especially enjoyed how they incorporated a piece of the ceremony about the ENVIRONMENT.
The whole premise of the ceremonies was about us all, mankind.
Maybe with an audience of about three billion people it will open some eyes.
I love how they gave each of the 11,000 athletes a sapling to plant.
11,000 trees, how splendid.
We, I did not watch it all as it got too late for me but I recorded it to watch later.
Well done Rio.
Well two days before I am back to work for a couple of days and then off for the rest of the week.
Nice short work week – two days.
Wouldn’t that be nice for always.
I baked some bran muffins and infused them with hydrated fruit tea from my collection of Steeped Tea.
They turned out so yummy.
Who would think that you could add tea to muffins.
When they were baking it seemed glorious in the house.
Alvin really wanted some.
But did not think muffins would be a good thing for him.
He is such a foodie.
Well time to get going here.
Check the lotto tickets.
Do some laundry.
Change bedding …..
Make coffee for me and my neighbour “S” ……
Happy Saturday everyone.
Enjoy your weekend.
Special Hello to: all my friends all over the world.
Always, Carol and Alvin
P.S. Alvin is no longer on the bed, I guess he decided to be closer to me as he is lying outside the office door. He truly is a Momma’s boy. Gotta love that little guy.
