Writerly Stuff

A few weeks ago I went to a local print shop and asked for a quote to make a banner to display at the Farmer's Market if we got a booth for the winter. I didn't get the quote so I called on Monday and they had sent it but I didn't get it so they resent it. I got it, changed the banner dimensions, got another quote, and ordered it. Today I got the email that it was done and ready for pickup. So I did. It isn't perfect. The blue letters are spotty but I think it'll be okay.

For most of the day I messed around with scenes in the manuscript. When I was at The Clearing last week I put back in all of the 3rd person scenes I took out earlier so they weren't printed off and in the binder so I did that. Tomorrow I have to write something new. I have to. I'll think of something.

The only birds that were at the feeders today were Sparrows and a few Mourning Doves. I did see a Robin chase a Dove off the top of the fence but that's all the exciting wildlife I've got, so I'll show you another one of Dad's roses. Pretty soon it'll be too cold for roses so I'm showing them while I've got them.

After supper I took a few minutes and drew a gratitude journal page for today. The big gratitude was that it got up to 79 degrees today. Seventy-nine! In October! I took a walk but I've hurt my left foot somehow. It doesn't bother me when I'm walking but when I sit for a while it really hurts when I get up and start to walk. What's up with that?

Tonight at Friday Night Knitting I worked along on the Denim Washcloth. I've got the pattern memorized and was very careful to keep my right side and wrong side rows correct. Don't want any "design elements" (unfixed booboos) in this washcloth.

That's all I've got tonight. I finished listening to an audiobook and started an audio collection of short stories. Stupid foot. Every time I wriggle my toes it hurts. I hope I didn't break something. I've been having a BLT for supper since I have CS's homegrown tomatoes. Three left. Gotta get more chicken bacon tomorrow so I have enough bacon for the tomatoes. Can't just have an LT sandwich. Well, I suppose I could but why?
