Good morning! It's a wonderful morning. We get a change today - cloudy and breezy, only going to mid 60s. And maybe even some showers. I sure hope so; otherwise ... by tomorrow I'll be watering! I have to work out a way to hook up some soaker hoses without being in the way of lawn mowing.
Last night I was a little bit productive again. I have 3 bookcases emptied and moved. Only, now I've changed my mind about where they're going! LOL! So, more changing around tonight I guess. I do have an empty wall beside me right now ... looks very strange. I'm used to cluttered! :) I watched AI, of course; and have no idea which 2 will go home tonight. Going out on a bit of a limb, I think Andrew might be one. Then again, I'm wrong more often than I'm right. I just hope my 3 top favorites hang in there still! :)
Today is "Children With Alopecia Day" ... "International Moment of Laughter Day" ... "Pan-American Day" ... "Anniversary - President Lincoln's Assassination" ... "Dia De Las Alericas (Honduras)".
