I got up a bit earlier than usual this morning. Dave gets up at 6, watches a few minutes of news (which I sleep through generally), checks his email, showers and then I wake up and join him for breakfast. But this morning I got moving right after he finished watching the news. I made his lunch and then we had breakfast. Honestly, our morning moves smoother when I make his lunch before breakfast. But I also know how much I love sleeping that extra 30 minutes too.

After Dave left, I took Bailey outside for a walk. (Bailey is one of my cats.) Dave bought a harness with a leash so I can take Bailey outside to explore occasionally. Bailey has NEVER been outside except briefly and while in a cat cage in all his 13 years. He’s been out now maybe 4 times on the harness and he’s really good on it. He sniffs around on the porch, then walks down the stairs and plops down on the sidewalk, fights briefly with the leash then walks around on the sidewalk and driveway. He just isn’t into the grass stuff yet…won’t even walk on it.

It’s raining here now so I guess I’ll have to wait to hang clothes out on the clothes line until later.

I hope everyone’s day is off to a good start! I’m off to have some quiet time with our Lord and then get busy checking things off my things-to-do list!
