No Grass Growing Under These Feet
I am known to sleep until 8 a.m. and then begin enjoying the day. This morning I was wide awake before seven and when the feet hit the floor it was all systems go.
I think it began yesterday when I went to the grocery store and they were literally giving away ripe bananas. I have never seen a grocery cart – top and bottom filled to the brim. Before I went to bed I had a banana bread recipe laid out. All during the night of sleep I must have been formulating the plan for today. By 8:30 the kitchen was filled with good smells as the bread was cooling on the wire rack. Another pot of coffee was finishing up and that was my cue to take a fresh cup and enjoy the patio before I rolled into making a cold salad for a family gathering tomorrow. Oh course the batch ended up being large enough for Dennis to sample some this evening for supper.
It is the year for weddings in our distant families and there can be no wedding without a bridal shower. It does get to be a challenge for a shower gift when you know that within the month a wedding gift will also be needed. I went and made nice this afternoon but did hurry home to help Dennis with the yard mowing.
My job is the push mower and trimming and I must say the yards look good enough to stay home and pretend we are at a resort. What more could we ask? A comfortable bed with a familiar bathroom and the food is always exceptional. As busy as this day was, no grass had a chance to grow under my feet but I managed to accumulate quite a bit of it on my clothes, in my hair and of course the eye glasses really got splattered from the weed whip. This was a great day.
