Friday, January 5, 2024 Mostly Cloudy Cold Breezy Rain Tonight 45 Degrees 3:28 p.m.

It is a cold, raw feeling day. Also a quiet day. I have only seen two dogs going for a walk, one being Shadow, the German Shepard who walks, or runs, drags his master. He is beautiful, about a year and a half old and full of energy. It is so entertaining when he sees a squirrel or another dog. I doubt his master would agree with that, but for anyone watching, it is great!

Since the weekend is supposed to be rainy and windy and cold, we are going to the grocery store when Tina gets home from work. We don’t need much but do need the things we run out of all the time, like bread, cat treats, etc. dryer sheets, etc. If we get them this evening we won’t have to worry about going out in the cold, rain, wind, etc. Maybe even snow! Wouldn’t that be fun?

Jerry came over yesterday late afternoon and put my bird watching feeder up, and got it going. Today I haven’t seen many birds. Just the red headed woodpecker. I forgot that I have to turn it on to record so didn’t get him on the camera. I will be more careful from now on.. He also put batteries in the back door blink and got my camera that watches in here. I need to ask him how I can check it as I don’t know where to look. Tina has it on her camera also and I doubt she has had time to look at it either. So many new toys and all so fun. by the time he left it was past time for me to fix dinner. That didn’t take to long as we had chicken drumsticks, a rice dish and salad. I air fried the drumsticks and they were good. The only way to fix them speedily. Then news and a great program, PBS Ancestry and Celebrities. Something like that. It came on at 7:00 p.m., I believe. I will pay more attention to the title next week and get it right.

Now it is the weekend and I still haven’t totally accomplished all I wanted to have done. I can’t believe I can save, and collect, so many papers with so many silly notes, that I don’t take and put where they belong, like addresses, phone numbers, passwords, etc. My New Years resolution…put all notes in their proper place asap after writing them down. Anyhow, a quiet weekend is planned, Church on Sunday morning….

Quote of the day: “I avoid looking forward or backward, and try to keep looking upward.” Charlotte Bronte 1816-1855 British writer. Her verse: If i rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there Your hand will guide me, Your right hand will hold me fast. Psalm 139, 9-10.

Have a great rest of your Friday, and a safe, adventurous, eventful, and fun weekend. Remember, say yes to New Adventures!
