Long days can lead

into some forgetfulness.  Had enough on my mind, I actually typed out a to do list, with some items having dates by them, so I didn't forget or get ahead of myself.  One thing forgotten was writing out my thanks.  So, a natural consequence, write it Saturday morning, in the quiet, and back date it to Friday.  I have grown accustom to writing ahead or day late, just won't rat myself out for which posts!  Writers prerogative?  Whatever, right?

Thankfulness for the day:

• getting kid the right meds for his cold
• independent kid getting school finished
• getting a lot of stuff done around the house despite 3 trips out
• time for feet up and Netflix, twice even
• getting more stuff into "It's Deductible"
• husband who likes to cook
• being tired at the end of the day

I'll leave you with what is a beautiful photo for me:

The vacuum and broom are being kept, but

the other items in the foreground are getting donated.

This is the "cleanest" this area has been in

a very long time.  It might even be empty soon.
