I am sitting in my corner chair watching the sunset as I write. It is only 5:21 and the sun is almost down. It is going to take me a bit to adjust to this time change. It feels much later.
I finished the baby blanket I was working on. I need to get an address and get it mailed to the new baby. I have another blanket I want to make but need to track down the yarn. I may need to go get some more. Oh no – buying yarn! It is a sacrifice but I can do it if I have to!
Got a bit of cleaning done today. I cleaned up a few areas that have been bugging me. Got the guest bedroom put back together again. Washed the quilt that hangs in the entry way. It is nice to get some little things done.
It was a beautiful day on the prairie again today. Temperatures were in the mid 60’s with bright blue skies. The wind was in a bit of a hurry today but has finally calmed down. The chickens are out enjoying the last rays of the sun for the day. They don’t enjoy the wind and like to come out when it slows down.
Nothing on the calendar for tomorrow. It is to be even warmer tomorrow. Jim is hoping to get the last set of steps of the deck sanded so they can be painted before winter sets in. He put the second coat of varnish on my desk today so it should be ready to move into place tomorrow.
Wednesday Jim has an appointment with our new doctor. I still haven’t gotten an appointment as my paperwork is still in limbo.
Tomorrow is the big Election Day. Sure hoping we will have a good idea of who our next president is going to be by late evening. With all the mail-in ballots it may take several days though. I keep reading stories about the potential for social unrest when the results are final. I trust that doesn’t happen.
My iPad is acting weird on the Facebook app. The top line of buttons where the back button is and the one that takes me to my homepage are not working. The back button works on other apps – just not on Facebook. It works on my other devices – just not my iPad. Anyone else having this problem? The iPad was upgraded and the buttons haven’t worked since. Hate when that happens.
Today is a bit bittersweet as it is the birthday of Chris, my son-in-law who died in 2016. I feel for his two dads and for my daughter Nicole. Memories of him are so strong for me today. We sure miss him and yet I feel his presence in spirit today.
Grateful for the love Chris had for my daughter, grateful the baby blanket is completed, and grateful for the beautiful sunset tonight.

Ed is having the same problem on his iPad. Sounds to me as if it is a flaw in the update. Time to report it to Apple.
