A beautiful Monday. A very pretty spring day here in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. I feel so bad for the people who have been hit by the tornadoes and flooding. That is a bitter pill to swallow for those folks, the heart ache of loosing loved ones, the clean up of the homes and businesses, the wondering about what is next. My heart goes out to them and my prayers go up for them.
The weekend was busy and good. We accomplished a lot that had been put off because there was other things to do. We still have a few minor chores to accomplish but the major ones are done. Saturday, on our way home from Knoxville we stopped at the fruit stand and bought strawberries. Yesterday, after church, we went to Kroger’s and bought angle food cake. So this evening we will be having strawberry short cake. We got a small basket to start with but just might have to go Saturday and get a bucket of them.
Today Stanley Steamer came and cleaned all the vents, including the dryer vent. And got the HVAC ready for summer. It was a bit expensive but they did an excellent job. They spent nearly 3 hours and were looking at and taking apart and putting back together, cleaning everything. That included taking the dryer vent hose or pipe off and cleaning the dryer as well as the vent. That took a bit of time. I do believe we are set for another year or two. Maybe more. With all the pollen we have this year I know that it will help with the sneezing and runny noses.
Now it is time I headed for the kitchen as Tina will be home soon. This time of day arrives quite quickly at times.

Have a great rest of your Monday. Make it a cheerful, productive, positive, and fun day.
