Another Day in the Park

 

I played with my paints this morning. The result, while looking like something a fourth grader might have produced, made me very happy. I think that I have accepted that I will never be mentioned among the greats, but just doing it is enough. I should have cleaned my room and washed my clothes, instead I did this.

And to cap my overarching lack of responsibility off, I decided that I would like another picnic and knit day in the park. The weather had other thoughts about that. I did walk to Zola's and pick up a sandwich and a bag of chips before heading to the park. My lunch was enjoyable. But just as I was finishing and beginning to knit a wind picked up and it began sprinkle. I quickly packed my things and started walking home. By the time I made it to F Street the sprinkle had picked up and was a decent shower. Still, it was a pleasant walk home. I was glad that I decided to wear my raincoat instead of just a sweater.

I got home to find a Mother's Day gift from Mollie that had arrived a day late. It is an electronic picture frame with web connectivity. Not only can I put all my travel pictures on it, Mollie can send me her wedding pictures and pictures of George too. I am going to have to study the manual to get it set up properly. 

Oh look! Now the sun is out again. I really want to go out and play today.
