Oh happy day

The sun is out, the air is dry, the breeze is light, I've finished today's chores and it's just barely noon. The vacuum cleaner I picked up at Home Depot is a winner, picking up more sand and dog hair than I could've imagined. The replacement reel fits the cordless string trimmer so the mister will be able to neaten up the yard when he gets home from his open track session. The homemade chicken vegetable soup tastes even better after it's been refrigerated overnight, and I remembered to write down the recipe. I have three books going and one to which I need to return - it's been dormant since late April - but I also have the desire to make pretty things out on the porch of my shop. Yes, today life is very good.
