Blowing in the Wind

The wind blew so hard today, it blew the picture over and I don't know how to right it. (It's my first.) Luckily we were spared the tornados. My cousin in VA is OK.

Love the bags I carry now on my errands and during grocery shopping which keep me from using plastic bags! If I *should* get a plastic bag, I keep it and turn it in @ the Acme. 3000plastic bags compressed,etc.=1 bench for customers to sit and wait on.

Most of the bags only cost $.99, but the jazzy bag was much more expensive; but I bought it cause it's so jazzy.

Meet Me At The Eagle


Meet Me At The Eagle, originally uploaded by ujima.

It's what Philadelphians have been saying/doing for decades. Met an old colleague,Zee,@ Wanamaker's (now Macy's :b---) for an earlty lunch in the balcony café on the third floor overlooking the organ court.

The bronze Eagle, which has been here since the early 1900s, weighs 2500 pounds and has 5000 feathers,

Conversations was difficult for some parts of our lunch (tea sandwiches of course as we had eaten in the Crystal Tearoom for decades) because the organ concert began at noon.This is the largest *operational* pipe organ in the world. I think it's been here since 1904.

Wearing it around the house today because my back still hurts from standing so long at the polls on Tuesday.
Going to the gym @5 to work out with Patrick.That'll help a lot. Looking forward to the stretching.

new & comfy

They make it even more of a pleasure to sit outside and read, or just to sit and think while watching the birds and squirrels.

Wednesday

Plants a-bloom @ the Clubhouse (coughcoughsneeze)
But they're so lovely!
Walking and itching. Scratching. Eyes watering.
Only lasted 20 minutes before I turned for home.
But it *is* a lovely day.
