I'm getting new flooring put down in my living room and kitchen. Hopefully the guys will get it finished today. They've had a lot of problems with it, this is an old house and I think everything's settled over the years and nothing's quite straight any more. But the part that's already down looks wonderful and will be so much easier to keep clean than the almost white carpet that had been there.
I need to get out afterwhile and buy a couple of birthday cards. An old school friend's birthday's tomorrow and if I mail a card today it may get there Monday. Then a family member has one next week. I need to pick up some groceries while I'm out. What I really want is broiled salmon. I put a lot of peppery seasonings on mine and it is wonderful but the price of salmon has gone up a lot the past few months and I haven't been buying it.
I checked out three of Larry McMurtry's books at the library. I should have just gotten one because so far it's slow reading, I just can't get into it yet. But I think it's more of a can't concentrate thing with me than not actually being interested in the books. I need some vitamins or herbs or something for my mind to make it sharp and quick again.
I walked around the yard with my coffee this morning, it wasn't as cold as it's been. Looking for signs of sprinng which is ridiculous as it's two months away, even in this area of the country. I do need to do something about what's left of the roses, they need trimming and I have to find out when it's okay to put some rose food on them...now or when it's warmer weather. They'll be blooming before a lot of other things by the end of March or April.
Just a nice boring everyday day today...just what I want.
