Yesterday was a sunny warm day with a high of 13C. This morning it is clear and 5C. Today is supposed to be a mix of sun and clouds with a high of 15C.
Lifestyle
I was out to make sandwiches in the morning. I was the one who cut them and put them on the trays. While waiting I do other things that need to be done. One of the ladies disappeared and we found her having low blood sugar. We helped her and then made sure she was good enough to drive home alone.
Once home, I had a cup of coffee and did some small chores around the house. I did some genealogy as I want to find more information on some people on the tree. It is something I enjoy doing. Before noon, daughter-in-law called and after I had lunch I was off to buy groceries for the dinner at the hall tonight. I delivered them to the hall.
I had a quiet afternoon as I knew I was going to be helping set up the hall at 4 pm. I was to pick up son so he could do the chairs. When we got there, the job except for chairs was done. I took one of the volunteers to get her car. I decided to get dinner at one of the fast food places. I drove in and parked beside family. We had one good laugh, ordered our food and went our merry way.
The things of joy I saw yesterday were numerous.
Mother's Day flowers from family.
Lots of daffodils blooming.
Tulips in bloom
Magnolia trees in bloom
Leaves coming out on the trees
Spring was very late this year but it is now here and everything is waking up rapidly. I will be looking for pepper plants and some flowers to brighten up the yard. I have to plant more grass seed. The grass seed can be done now but plants can't go out until the beginning of June due to the late frosts we can get.
My sleep patterns are improving some as I am less stressed and anxious. Daughter is in a better place mentally as she had a session about what to submit for mediation. The person she hired to help is a genius and puts everything into clear and concise language. Knowing this, my stress level has gone down a lot.
Sewing
I was down to the sewing room and looked at the top I want to cut out and sew. I am ready to work on it when I have time.
Knitting
I am still trying to figure out what I want to knit. I need to look at my patterns and make a decision.
Thoughts
I decided to get a subscription to Ancestry as it was on sale. I enjoy genealogy and it allows me to escape from the world. I relax and before I know it, an hour has passed. I do make lots of notes on people when I look at death, birth, and marriage certificates, census records, and items found at Find A Grave.
I have enjoyed not sewing or knitting for 2 days but need to start knitting at night. I find it keeps my hands and mind busy in the evenings. Sewing will begin once I have the time to spend in the sewing room. That could be tomorrow.
Today
I am going to continue cleaning the kitchen this morning. I want to get it finished. I may sew this afternoon. I have to be out to work the bar for a couple of hours at the hall and will be home around 8 pm. I probably won't knit tonight but hope to be ready to knit again next week.
Until the next time...............................................................
