Lazy Saturday

All I wanted to do this morning was stay warm in bed.  And so I did.  Eventually, I got up, showered, and had breakfast.   Here are some happy things from the day:

• Getting out of the house, even for a little bit, seemed important to me today.  I took a small walk.  The fresh air was nice.  There was ice on the trail puddles.  I think the walk helped this cold I have been fighting, or it is really allergies.  

• My goal today was to clean off the futon that has been covered with boxes.  I reached that goal.  The futon cover is in the wash.  I can't figure out how to turn the futon couch into a bed, but hopefully someone else can.  This means that there is a place to sit while sorting through boxes.  This also opens up another option for Bel to sleep on.  I'm not sure that either living room is better than the other, but it is a choice.  I even vacuumed and washed some of the floor.

Someday this wall will be painted something else.

• My friend, TF, sent me some pencil sharpeners that I have been wanting.  They are supposed to be made out of magnesium.  This means that they can be shaved down to help start a fire.  The pencil sharpener part can be used on a stick to make a fire starter.  I'm looking forward to seeing if it works as easily as it sounds.

Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.
