Free time

As I have nothing pressing on my calendar

- or mind -

today, it seemed like a good time for a new post.

 

"Our" hummingbirds are back.

The swooping sound made by their wings is always

a delight to hear.  And they make an odd

chirp, almost like a dolphin's chatter,

that always surprises me.

 

Sadly, this year, I won't be watching for them

while reclining indulgently

in my hammock.

It has disintegrated.

String by string.

You can't imagine how much I already miss it.
I'm glad it held together long
enough for Aidan to enjoy while he was here.

 

Earlier this morning I went through my tee shirts.

The rag bag will be replenished,

with some going on to the Goodwill .

The other day I went through my pants.

It's rather embarrassing that there were so many

items in both the "keep" and

"toss" piles. 

 

The plan was to do no shopping for a few

more weeks.  Make what I have

work for these last few weeks of heat

and enjoy some new fall clothes.

That is still the general outline of my plan,

but, there are some gaps- literally -

that need to be filled.  Now.

And everyone has everything on sale

so tomorrow I will pick up a few essentials.

 

And scope out some of the fall offerings...
