Bits and Pieces

- Caught my sister online this morning, called her, and we went for a nice long walk this afternoon. Three miles. My feet are tired but only one is moaning. My right foot. It's the touchy one. From all those years of controlling my overactive childhood bladder by sitting on my heel.

- I came home with a "slightly stale" but beautiful bunch of flowers this afternoon, donated to a local office by Trader Joe's. A lady came in with two buckets full of bouquets and I was blessed to take one home when I left.

- My naughty chickens have taken to crossing the road into the neighbor's yard. I need to wrap a chain around Coq au Vin's leg. I think if he stays home the girls would stay home too. When I came home this afternoon that silly rooster was knocking on my front door.

 - Had a little bowl of chili yesterday afternoon. It's not off the challenge, but different from what I've been eating the past two weeks. I have to admit, it was pretty tasty, even without the chips.

Back to work tomorrow. My long weekend is almost over.

    1. Yes, and they're very generous. I happen to know they also make great donations of flowers to local nursing homes too. I've seen them at The Friendly Home many times.

  2. Your bouquet is lovely. I am hoping to get more chickens this spring. Enjoy yours, even if they do wander!

    1. I am enjoying the chickens, I just don't want my rooster misbehaving with the neighbor lady or her husband.

  3. Very pretty flowers!
    Your rooster IS silly. "Hello, is anybody home?"
