A New Day

I'm practicing getting up early this week because I have to be someplace at 8 o'clock on Thursday morning so I saw the sun coming up today for the first time in I can't remember when.  I usually get to bed around eleven and wake up around eight so things have to change this week.  I love being retired.

I was lucky enough to glance at the feeder this morning to see this male Cardinal all bright red in the sunshine.  It was a gorgeous warm day but windy.  It's been windy lately and I don't know why.  I'm sure the weather guys have some reason that it's been windy but I haven't watched the weather reports.    I missed the news tonight too.

And the reason I missed the news is that tonight was the knitting guild Zoom social knitting at 6 o'clock.  I worked on another preemie hat and knitted up to the crown decreases.  I'll finish it up tomorrow and probably start another one.

 

I visited DS at the brewery today and he was kegging off the blueberry and black current beer I got to taste a couple weeks ago.  It's the most amazing cranberry color.  Today I got to taste the Locals Only beer he's brewing for the local breweries to share, this year it's his turn.  It's a pale beer flavored with lime and coconut.  Pretty tasty.

Today's toss was a trio of WW pamphlet cookbooks.  I paged through and only found one recipe that I wanted to keep out of the four so three of them went into the bag.

The prompt today said that you're living in a post-apocalyptic world.  How do you fare?  I figure I'd do alright since I know how to knit and sew, how to garden and cook, and how to build a fire.  I've been camping a bunch so I'm pretty good at that too.  I decided that I'd do okay.
