A Nice Surprise In My Email

November 8, 2013

It feels like a good morning!  Last night I pushed myself to stay up later, and was able to sleep till about 6 a.m.  Tonight I have to work.  My friend at work needs Sunday off so I will work Sunday day for her.  I swapped tomorrow night for tonight so that I don't have to do a 24 hour shift.  I'm not feeling up that just yet. 

Actually, I've been losing my voice since yesterday morning.  I surely hope I don't come down with yet another virus.  I need time to fully recover from the last one.   As I get older, it takes me so much longer to recuperate from whatever I manage to catch.

Late yesterday afternoon, Joe and I went food shopping.  I did not find any brain food gummies, but I did get some Vitamin C gummies.  I also got my Thanksgiving turkey.  It will stay in my freezer until a few days before Thanksgiving, when I will thaw it out and cook it.  Mmmm, mmmm. I can almost taste the turkey salad. 

This morning I'm hoping to dig up some energy and go shopping at one of my favorite stores, Ocean State Job Lot.  They have quite a few nice bargains that I'm wanting to pick up.  I especially need to buy more bird food and suet cakes.

 I also need to pick up a magnet.  I'm thinking of switching over to induction cooking, and only the stainless steel pans will work with it.  Hence, the magnet.  If it sticks to the pan, I can keep the pan for the new cook plate.  I don't need a whole cook top, just a couple of cook plates because that's about all I ever use when I am cooking.  This, in turn, will give me a bit more counter space.

I got another wonderful surprise in my email yesterday from Kyra.  Folks, this lady is sooooo talented in the scrap design department, and she makes the greatest layouts.  This new layout features the photo of me and Bobby at the restaurant the other night.  This is quite special to me because I am so lacking in photos of me and my family members, especially the grandchildren and great grandchildren.  I am usually behind the camera.  Kyra, thank you so much.  This absolutely made my day brighter!

I went into my archives again to find more photos of the birds that regularly flock to the Mrs' bird feeder.   Here we have a Cardinal, a Woodpecker and a Blue Jay.  All photos were taken through her patio door windows.

Well, that's about all my news for this morning.  It's time to get dressed and start this great new day.  So till tomorrow, Y'all be safe and have a fantabulous day.

Hugs. Edna B.
