Good Morning! Monday June 7, 2010

Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! We had a bit of rain overnight - not a lot, just enough to "refresh". Today will be mid 80s (more than 10 degrees "cooler" than the weekend!), less humid, and mostly sunny. It sure would be a lovely day to stay home and play in the garden! :)
Yesterday was not a day for getting very much done; but I did get my "main" rooms to where they're mostly clear of clutter. I still have a lot of various boxes of "stuff" to sort, but for now they're at least contained. Once all the rooms are clear and clutter-free, and the house is clean, the sorting part can wait. I'm so anxious to get back to sewing; and, I've got so many books to read. If I can't have summer off, doing things I enjoy is the next best thing! LOL!
Hopefully tonight's project will be taking things upstairs, since it should be at least a smidgeon cooler now. I hope! :)

Today is "Anniversary - VCR Introduction" ... "Boone Day (Ky)" ... "National Day (Malta)".
