Cloudy Day...35º

Back in the groove...Yesterday was a day to reconnect to my real world after a month on the road...Write People was entertaining as usual, lots of discussion, catching up and eating...Janie and Pat surprised us with a lovely salad and dessert (lemon pudding cake) lunch...Pat and I caught up on the news then drove to Alder Slope and the garden club meeting...We basked in the warm green houses and checked out the newly sprouted flowers and veggies.

Arrived home to find Herb taking a much needed nap, resting up after all the fetch and carry stuff of unloading the car, doing many loads of laundry and all the trips up and down our basement stairs...Plus the frustration of a smoking wood stove...John called us (after Becky read yesterdays blog) to see if he could be of help with the chimney...Didn't take Herb long to remove the stove pipe again, get the ladder in place and the chimney brush ready...John climbed on the roof, cleared out the chimney and now our wood stove is again heating the house.

Today I have my first class in Graphoanalysis, The art of judging of a person's character, disposition, and aptitude from his handwriting; also called graphology...Should be interesting and fun, never to late to learn new skills.

Tomorrow I'm thinking maybe we will pick up our taxes in Lostine, shop for groceries and I have an acupuncture treatment at noon...I'm feeding the sour dough start and plan to make bread on Friday also have to think about food and meals for the coming week...Tatiana is having a yard sale on Saturday and Sunday so Pat and I will have to check that out...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
