Wild Flowers

When I walk to the mail box every day, I notice the little flowers growing wild in the yard. Some are very tiny and some are big enough to pick and bring into the house and put in a vase. I found small yellow flowers on tall stalks growing and I picked some. They turn towards the sun in the day time and close up at night. It's nice to see them do that.

Today I picked up Wanda at her house and took her to Ruby Tuesday's for lunch. We both had the salad bar and then split a double chocolate cake dessert with vanilla ice cream. That was the best part of the meal! I had to eat mine too fast for I didn't want to be the last one eating, but I like to savor my sweets and eat small bites at a time. I bought her some kitchen linens and a pot of yellow Zinnias for her birthday, which was April 1st while Mary Kate was here. We had a nice time. I came back and washed the bird sheets with another set of sheets for my bed. No, I had other things to wash, and I had to fold the sheets that were still in the dryer. I read from the Book of Mormon and from my John Grisham novel. Was getting sleepy but didn't want to take a nap at 3 PM, so I went downstairs and rode on my bike for 20 minutes and then lifted weights and used the tubes. It's the first time I've worked out at home for some weeks. I'll teach at the senior center tomorrow and will go to Curves afterwards. Maybe I can get to Curves more now that I'm teaching 3 times a week. I get tired of having a routine to follow and sometimes have to misbehave!
