Remember the plants, trees, animal life who all have their families, their histories too. Talk to them, listen to them. They are alive poems.

1. It was in the mid 30s and partly cloudy when I got up. A watery sun came out about noon, and the temperature got into the low 40s.
2. Today is my baby boy’s 50th birthday. He’s become our mainstay when either of us have a computer problem, or an illness, or need to have something reached on a high shelf. He’s only about 3 hours away in summer, and 6 hours away in winter (neither of us move with the seasons, but the mountain passes cause the discrepancy.)
3. WooHoo!!! My new FitBit was found, alive and well. The post person marked it delivered yesterday. but it wasn’t in my box or in the lock box. I think someone else got the key in their box, and then saw who was supposed to get the delivery, so they put it in my front door, between the screen and the door. We NEVER use the front door, so, even though I had looked on the porch, I didn’t see it. Mystery of the wandering FitBit, solved.
4. Lunch was “fix it yourself” day. I had a “healthy” peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Killer Dave’s 21 Grains and Seeds bread, with Adams chunky peanut butter, and Polaner seedless blackberry jam (no-sugar added, extra fiber.)
5. Greisser Girls Gab later this afternoon. As always, looking forward to it.
How about you? What made you happy today?
