Good morning! It's a lovely summer morning. I got to "sleep in" a little, but it's still a touch misty out. I can see the brightness where the sun is burning through. The forecast for today is only upper 80s and mostly cloudy ... good chance of storms later. Hopefully, not until after I do some errands this afternoon! LOL!
Last night was yet another lazy, get-nothing-done type night. I have no excuse - TV was mostly reruns (I watched a "Criminal Minds" marathon. That's just sad! LOL!) The only thing I "accomplished" was a to-do list for today .... so hopefully I will get everything done I need to. I have laundry and cleaning to do this morning, errands and window-shopping (just looking, no spending) to do this afternoon. If I get done, then the whole rest of the weekend is working on sewing projects; and maybe even some craft projects.
Today is "Be An Angel Day" ... "Southern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day".
Quotes of the Day:
"Patience serves as a protection against wrongs as clothes do against cold. For if you put on more clothes as the cold increases, it will have no power to hurt you. So in like manner you must grow in patience when you meet with great wrongs, and they will then be powerless to vex your mind. "
-- Leonardo da Vinci
"Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple. "
-- Dr. Seuss
