Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's mistly again this morning, and may be a touch "cooler" today - upper 80s. Wow, no 90s? It will be mostly cloudy with scattered showers. We had a pretty good storm yesterday evening; and though we could use a lot more, it was a really good long shower. I'm hoping we get more today ... my garden already looks happier!
Last night we had some minor (at least, hope it was! LOL!) car trouble. Messing around with that pretty much took up the evening. I did manage to locate one of the sets of paperwork I've been looking for. YAY! I don't even know what I'll try to do tonight - continue the paperwork search; or start the "small project"; or do some sewing; or maybe just read! :)
Today is "Embrace Your Geekness Day" ... "Gruntled Workers Day" ... "Feast of Lanterns (Japan)".
Quotes of the Day:
"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up."

-- Paul Beatty
"Ask not what you can do for your country. Ask what's for lunch."

Inspirational Joy for the Day:
If you love something, set it free.
If it comes back to you, it is yours.
If it doesn't, it never was.
