It was 7:59 when I pulled into the parking lot at the doctor's office this morning. Nah, I'm not sick, at least not to my knowledge, it was just to get blood work done before my yearly physical. Nothing like getting this stuff done and over with early in the morning. Besides, that first cup of coffee had to wait until after my blood was drawn...that will get you in a hurry! Can you drink cold coffee? I fixed my big mug of coffee as usual this morning and carried it with me. Even cold and about two hours old, it was still downright good...
Leaving the doctor's office I swung by the, combination, "seed store and license plate agency" to hang more bonnets and aprons. Sorry I've never taken a picture of that place to show you. Just about everybody in the county goes in there and while standing in line they can't help but see the aprons and bonnets hanging on a rod above the front window. Occasionally, Jimmy, the store's manager, comes in Food Lion where Poppy works and hands Poppy a little wad of money to bring home to me. Yep, spending money. My spending money, and that's exactly what I do with that money.
Finishing up at the seed store I did a little grocery shopping, then came home to begin the day's work...still sipping on that cold coffee. Couldn't help but think about Mama. She used to sip on her cold coffee all morning. Mama enjoyed dipping her toast or biscuit in the coffee, and so do I.
Yesterday morning, at least I think it was yesterday, when Eli and I were out early, this was the sky we saw. I came running back inside for the camera. Poppy said, you have enough pictures of the sky on your blog. But seriously, this one was breathtaking. The colors change so quickly and had already gone from a fire red to orange and it was still mostly dark outside...
And one more thing. Look who enjoyed the new pine straw...curled up in the warm sun under a thorny rose bush...
and stretching out, curling those sweet little back feet...
Okay, I simply must get busy. We've had rain this morning but now looks like the sun may come out. It's very very windy! In fact, the weatherman predicted gusts up to 45 mph. Hope the roots on these tall trees around the cabin can hang on in this wet ground.
Thank you. Hope to be back soon.
Love,
Henny
