Jim came home last night – well more accurately early this morning. It was good to have him back home. We didn’t get to bed until after 5:00 this morning. I am feeling the lack of sleep this afternoon. May go lay down for a bit when I finish writing.
I went down to do chicken chores this morning and to my delight found the first green egg. Soon all 29 chickens will be laying and we will be over run with eggs. Pay day is almost here!! I got 11 eggs today after getting 12 yesterday. Anyone need eggs?
Not sure I have gotten anything done today. I helped Jim unload his car. He brought another full car full of his treasures. We will have great difficulty someday if we ever decide to downsize. Guess we will cross that bridge when we get to it.
We walked down to get the mail but it hasn’t arrived yet today. I’m sure the postman has lots of extra packages to have to deal with which is putting her behind schedule. It is so nice out today it won’t be a problem to walk down again later when she gets here.
Today is Winter Solstice – a turning point for me. Daylight will start to return minute by minute. It feels like I have reached the bottom of the hole I fell into earlier and can now start to climb out.
Nothing on the calendar for tomorrow or Wednesday. I want to get some more cleaning done and give some thought as to what to fix for dinner Christmas Day. I have to go to town for a bone density test and a blood draw on Thursday and can pick up things if I need them.
I do need to call a place tomorrow and check on a Christmas present that I ordered and they were to have shipped. I haven’t heard back from them other than receiving an order confirmation. I’m not sure if they send me a notification when they ship or not.
Baked Jim a batch of Snickerdoodle cookies tonight. He was out and we can’t have that emergency. I love baking cookies – just don’t like to eat them.
Grateful Jim is home on the prairie, grateful for Winter Solstice, and grateful for a green egg today.
