no plans

• alas I did not want to get up this morning as I was thinking I had nothing to do-
• now that is a silly thought for an old woman but as a habit
• I usually plan out things in my head the night before
• of a few things I must do or could do
• but forgot to think things out which means I convinced myself
• of a lazy day------ha!
• but I did get up and soon saw there were things to do
• the sun was shining after a 2 days of rain so I knew
• I could weed------that is the best time as weeds come up
• root and all-- and of course, there are always a few house
• chores jumping out of the sink or the laundry hamper
• I also walked down to the library and stopped off at a store
• I only spent a quarter-- LOL
• but had a chat with one lady friend
• then the kids came and the kids went
• and I did have a nap- quite unintentional as I was
• watching the news but cuddled in a blanket
• as I was cool as even though the sun shone
• it was a cool day outside and in........
• I am doing ok here- soon fall will be here and
• all the church activities will return
• there is not much to go to in this town
• that does not include alcohol -
• I decided when papa hubby died that I
• would not compromise my beliefs because
• I am lonely-
• summer times does seem the time to be lonely
• (my widow friends agree as they too miss the church action)
• ----if you are a christian widow so many folks
• are coming and going and most regular programs
• take a leave of absence
• I do walk every day which is good for me
• but shopping is again hard as we do not have
• many stores.......the windows do not change too often-
• but I will continue this journey
• depending on the Lord as the
• Lord is my shepherd.
