The cake he ordered for me was yummy as always, but he was disappointed that the person he ordered it from had misunderstood the color …
After spending 5 hours outdoors today raking my lawn and gardens and composting the leaves, I’ve just scratched the surface. But boy, am I exhausted. I think I see more of the same tomorrow. But Jeff and I are going to see the Shakespeare play, Richard III, at a local theater. It’s been so long …
