I fell into the muck pond yesterday afternoon. Not sure what happened but man I took a hard fall. I had a really bad night last night. I didn’t fall asleep until daybreak this morning. Whatever caused me to fall into the muck pond is gone today as I am back to myself. Sure wished I knew what causes me to fall into the muck pond.
After I got up this morning I went out and finished my mowing. It is a beautiful day to be outside as it is in the 70’s and there are bright blue skies and lots of sunshine today. Saw a baby bunny, a turtle, two baby birds and two critters they looked like small rats but they didn’t have a tail that I could see. I have lots of wild flowers blooming right now. I tried to mow around them as they are so pretty I didn’t want to mow them down. My yard looks a bit like a drunk was mowing it though.
Still need to go to the gym this afternoon and get a workout in. This evening Kathy and I are going to a dinner to celebrate our baby brother’s retirement from Westar. It is a beautiful day to have a party.
Set up a system so I can start recycling my trash. I am using cat litter containers to put the recycling goods in. They fit under a shelf in my pantry. I wrote on each what goes in it. They are easy to open and pull out to put stuff in. I have some totes in the garage that I will dump them in when they get full. Now I need to figure out where to take the stuff to when the totes are full. I had to dump the first full litter container last night. I’m a little late to the recycling program but guess it is good that I am finally getting there. Who knew the cat litter containers would come in so handy.
Found a volunteer opportunity for this winter in the Fiji Islands. I can choose how long I want to stay. Three months this winter in Fiji sounds like a great idea. Has anyone ever been there? Would love to hear about it if so. Going to Australia and New Zealand is on my 70 things to do list. Fiji is pretty close so I’m sure some side trips could happen. Love the possibility of it at this point. I will keep looking but this one feels good.
A week from today I leave for my New Mexico trip. It will be good to get away for a couple of days. It has been too long since I took a vacation. I need to make a list of the things I need to get done before I leave. I have a family that is going to come house sit for me while we are gone. So grateful for them! They have one of Roxy’s puppies. I bet their puppy and Kathy’s puppy have fun together.
Birds are singing. Dogs are napping. Chickens are crowing. Cats are hiding from the dogs. It is a beautiful day on the prairie today. All is well!
