This week is supposed to be mostly sunny and 40s. Let's hope the weather keeps its word. I was going to go to Walmart and do our weekly grocery shopping yesterday, but decided that the sun was too sunny to waste the day in a big cement building. Bits and I bundled up and went for a walk to the library and then to the grocery store (Mike's birthday-and we needed the staple chocolate cake mix with white canned frosting) and then to back home. I always overestimate my energy for the day, so by 8:00 I was exhausted.
The lake was true midnight blue and big blackened areas from the clouds in the sky fell onto the bare trees on the hills behind. It's such a beautiful place.
Mike's b-day was fun. His birthday dinner was an impressive feast of chili and biscuits, his choice. He ate two pieces of his cake while I ran out to pick up a few groceries, so after dinner we put the candles into the already sliced into cake. He had been waiting all day for cake, so when he got home he was too hungry and excited to wait any longer. Bits helped Daddy blow out the candles. A little later the two of them took a chilly walk to see the Indian.
