Daily Notes- December 7th

 Today's word.  Choose.  I am choosing to be happy today.  Two books at the library pickup.  I was expecting four.  But got two.  I am failing to understand the emails I get from the library. But am happy for the two books for husband.  Reading is good exercise for brain cells.  The art is from my workbook.  I keep it here by my left elbow (on the computer desk) and draw and color things I see on people's sites. Things I like and want to remember.  From now on I will start noting the site address as well.  Then I color them in.

I have never copied any of them into my own work.  I just like the energy and colors and shapes.  And some of the shapes reminded me of shapes I have used in years past. More than ten perhaps even 20.

We got a delivery just a few minutes ago.  An LLBean forest container arrangement of pine etc.  The Annual Bank Christmas party was obviously cancelled so they sent out a gift.  Which is very thoughtful.  I added water- the note said I should- to help the greens perk up.  I also added a gold wire with stars that knocks around the living room.  Just always there if one needs it.

The grocery parking lot was full.  But the store itself was not.  But lots of stocking of shelves was being done.  My gluten free coconut cookies were back- I got three packages.  I also got roasted cashews. Two containers.  I got two Chicken Parm meals for husband to heat and eat.  And I choose to buy English Toasting Bread for my grilled cheese sandwiches.  An upgrade.  I thought it would be nice.

Husband is eating lunch, reading the local free paper I picked up at grocery and doing a word search puzzle.  Multi tasking.

I have a cup of freshly made tea waiting for me.  And an email with the first chapter of a friend's book to read.  She says I read books like a Junkie Needing a Fix.  So, true.  

I am also going upstairs to look for orange cloth.  None down in the Little Closet. Sewing today and not Reading.  Change things up.  Law and Order on BBC and it's so impossibly crisp and clean on BBC.  I love it. It must be why I like watching- it was filmed so beautifully.  And I can look for Hallmark Actors.
