Went into Emporia a little after noon to get my blood drawn so my thyroid levels can be checked.  I picked up some egg cartons from a friend who saves them for me.  I appreciate that!  Went to meet with someone else but we missed connecting with each other.

Took my boxes to the shred event yesterday.  There was quite a line the whole time I was there but it was well-organized and the line seemed to move fairly quickly.   It took me about 15 minutes to get to the drop off point.  Kathy and Craig each took three boxes too so got rid of nine boxes.  The attorney general gave everyone some political propaganda.  Wonder if my tax dollars paid for it or if it came out of his campaign money.  I’m afraid I am a bit suspicious of all politicians these days.

The wind finally quieted down today.  It is warming up this afternoon and turning into a nice day.  It is to be spring like tomorrow!  Bring it on!!

Haven’t gotten much done today.  I did finish knitting another blanket.  Four more skeins used up!

I heard today about the deaths of two women from surrounding communities.  One had cancer and the other died in a car accident.  Both had lots of children and both still had children living at home.  My heart goes out to their families.  Life sure isn’t fair sometimes.

Kathy is going with some friends to a movie tonight.  They invited me to go with them but I haven’t decided it I am going to go.  I really don’t enjoy movies but I would enjoy being with that group of women.  I am a bit tired today so will probably stay home and go to bed early.

Feeling very lazy today and not very motivated to do anything.  Sitting in my chair in the bright sunshine and looking out the window is about my limit of doing for the day.

Have a board meeting to go to tomorrow afternoon.  I like the people on the board but don’t enjoy the meetings.  This will be my last year on the board as I don’t enjoy them.  I do better just doing my thing for an organization and not knowing all the behind the scenes stuff.

Think I will go outside and do a critter check and walk down and get the mail.  Maybe some fresh air will give me some energy and I can get something done today.  Still have two baby chicks that need a new home.  Anyone know of someone who wants them?

Grateful for the sunshine this afternoon, grateful for empty space, and grateful for a day where I can be and know that is enough.
