Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself;
I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today.
I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn’t arrived yet.
I have just one day, today, and I’m going to be happy in it.
~Groucho Marx

An early morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.
~Henry David Thoreau

This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118:24

Work Day

 32 degrees, clear, and calm for walking this morning.
Sunrise 7:34

Walked up and down the streets in down and
 around both cemeteries and the ball park.
Then around town a little more.
Walked 6 miles

This morning all the bulls walked over to the gate
to see me.

BERJAYA

On my way to town I saw a deer and a rabbit run across the road.
In town saw a couple of blue jays at a bird feeder.

The garage in town is part of the car dealership across the street.
Most mornings I see the salesman and he waves from inside or says
 good morning if he's outside.
This morning he was outside and this was the first time we stopped
and talked.  His name is Phil.

Farmer Marvin stopped in his truck when I was up his way
to say hi.  I asked about his new huge barn.
It is 30 x 644 and is for his 150, as he called them, Mama Cows.
He wants to keep them in the barn during the winter.

Stopped for a little chat with Lisa and Dwayne when we were
walking around the cemetery on top of the hill.

Just a little frost on the mirror so only room for
a little message.

☀️    🥾    🐄

Did my usual morning chores this morning and then 11:00 we
headed out to church for another 
Fingerprint Ministry work day.
We started working at 11:45 and got home 5:45.
The day zoomed right by.
Nice to be home to relax, watch a DVD,
Make some weave-it squares and of course have some ice cream.
Might even have time for a little reading.
It's been a good day.

Thanks for stopping by.
Happy Friday

Bulls in the barnyard

All snow gone.
Saw the sun once it rose at 7:33.

Walked up and around town, down the main road,

Rebecca was out running this morning.

Went down to the Drane house.

And down this was too is the barnyard with the bulls.
All the bulls that have been in the surrounding pastures around the
Drane house aren't there anymore.
But lots of bulls are back in the barnyard.

Walking past the library I noticed it is getting a new metal roof.

☀️    🐄    🥾    

Got home from walking, got changed, ate breakfast 
and left for church.
It was a Blankets for Babies work day.
Eight people working today.
There I am making a square.
Someone sneaked this picture of me.
