What  an amazing day out there.
It was a beautiful day. Absolutely beautiful.

I was a machine today.

BECAUSE I straightened the tv room, Greg and Judy can get the heck out of my hair in and into another room leaving me to enjoy my living room, and the quiet.

After making a 2 thumbs up vegetable soup tonight, I told Judy to wash the dishes after supper, she asked if I broke the dishwasher? I said I might if my 18 year old dishwasher didn't get in there and get them washed! Muahahahhahahhahahha!

I heard from a friend that her mother had a stroke last night and has been put in the hospital. An event that took no one by complete surprise, but none-the-less a shock when it happens. Many prayers from our house to theirs tonight.

Good night from a 30 chore accomplishing woman on John Street
