All is done except the three shirts waiting on the chair to be ironed.  Amazingly I accomplished almost every thing I wanted to do yesterday and I can still walk this morning.  This is a feat that has not occurred in a very long time.  See I am doing better. 

This evening Darlene and Michael are coming to visit and I have plans for supper already in mind.  In a phone conversation the other day I mentioned to Darlene that I had made scalloped potatoes with ham and she said they loved them but didn’t have them very often.  Well that solved my problem quickly.  So I planned that, a steamed vegetable side dish, and a salad.  For dessert I found a recipe for Polynesian Sunshine Pie printed on one of those slips that are generated with your receipt when the clerk rings up your groceries.  I’ll be making that this morning after I’m through with the ironing board. 

I have been up since a little after 6 this morning and didn’t bother to turn up the heat in here. It just kicked on and is a welcome feeling indeed.  The big round thermometer on the porch is reading 16 degrees and even though we had no snow last night there is still some laying on the ground. 

Well I have done my visiting for this morning and have some minor chores to do so I will say—have a great day as I run about four games of Free Cell and then shut it down!  Remember to laugh—you know why!!!!!
