February 17, 2016. Thoughts in February 2016

I was up at 6:30 and it is now an hour later. I have had breakfast–two soft-boiled eggs with toast and Marmite and coffee so I am ready for the day. Judy will be here today to clean up– well, mostly to tidy up but since we had the torrent of rain a couple of days ago, the patio is decorated with clumps of mulch from the area outside the patio!

The sky this morning is interesting. When I looked out earlier, well a few minutes ago, it was a solid grey but now, say ten minutes later, I can see the grey moving over and blue skies and fluffy clouds are becoming apparent. The temperature right now is forty-one and it will get into the middle fifties today.

Before Judy comes this afternoon, I must empty the dishwasher and put out the sheets I want so she can change the bed linen. Hmm, odd how we say “linen” when it isn’t linen! Actually, I want her to put the flannel sheets back on. This is the only flannel set I have which surprises me because both Fred and I liked flannel sheets. I seem to remember I got rid of them before I left Vermont. We had them a long time and parts of them were very thin. Anyway, on my mental list of things I want to get is another set of flannel sheets. Good heavy flannel sheets are expensive…

On with the day…
