Good morning!! It's a beautiful morning. It's bright and clear now, and will warm up into the low to mid 50s ... which will be wonderful after the long chilly stretch we've had! I've always been better able to get busy and productive when it's sunny. My house tends to be dark, so any day that's not bright makes it tend toward dreary. Those of you who know me know how much I love my many lamps! LOL! Today will be wide open doors for a change, and lovely fresh air blowing away some of the winter staleness. I have a lot of projects and errands planned ... I hope my energy level keeps up with my ambition! :)
Today is "Anniversary - Fall of the Alamo" ... "Independence Day (Ghana)".
Quotes of the Day:
"I never met anybody who said when they were a kid, "I wanna grow up and be a critic."
