Some Stuff

 (I think I took this photo AFTER I ate whatever was on the plate!)

 Yay June!  Yay Mondays!  I tend to think Monday is a free day, but then I remember that I have to do my mail/accounting/receipting work for Bill's ministry and that entails going to the post office and then spending time in front of his computer and finally walking the mail and deposit to the bank.  Well, there's dinner to think about, too.  I like going to the grocery store for the most part, but I'm sure I'll get slightly distracted and spend more time there than necessary.  It's going to be very hot today which is really a lovely feature of summer, but honestly I don't like getting overly warm (I know, I sound like a broken record because I've mentioned this SEVERAL times!)

I organized all my art supplies, putting them in plastic drawers instead of storing all of the colored pencils and pens in mugs.  I'm painting the garden gnomes (so faded) and that is very fun, but requires some do overs because colors have to GO together, right?  I have lots of paint.  I'll show you the finished gnomes soon.
 The trees outside our living room window are stunning, so green and leafy.  It's easy to take all of the wonderment of spring and summer for granted.  I don't want to.  I wish it was easier to look around open-eyed and cherish the sweet little blessings of warm weather.  Hanging wash on the clothes line is a huge bonus, isn't it?

I slept on and off last night and even though I didn't get up and lurk around the dark house, waking up a lot makes me think I'm tired.  Do you have a hard time recognizing that you are sleepy and that a little nap would REALLY help?  I think I need a cuppa before I do the errands.
I have photos of doings and peonies on my phone, but it is upstairs charging so I chose some lovely stored photos today.  I'll be back soon to show you a granny dress, my art center, my traveler's notebook, my knitting, and the flags in the garden.
Thank you for popping by this old blog.  I started blogging in 2008 I think.  Whoa. That's a lot of blog, blog, blogging.  
(Talk soon . . . )
