Plans

 Knowing that I was going to tour the mall store again today and knowing that we were going to measure it, I should have been more mentally prepared for the amount of time it would take.  The plan is to rent this abandoned mall store for an SCA event in March.  Plans are coming together and I think it is going to be a really great event.  Other happy things for today:

• The moon is out during the day now.  It is hard to see in the picture, but it was pretty.

It is just over the tree to the left of the light pole.

• Eggnog.
• Finding real maple syrup on sale at Ocean State Job Lot.  My love for sugar is huge.  Maple syrup is a glorious food that I never want to run out of.  There were other items on my list that I didn't find and I may go back for more later this week.

Thank you for being part of my happy things. Stay safe.

20,000

 Working in the garden, I get quite a few steps.  By the time Amy and I went for a walk this afternoon I was over 9000 steps.  Our walk was over four miles.  Today marks the eighth month in a row that I have achieved my 10,000 step goal every day.  To celebrate, I doubled my step count for today.  

Other happy things for the day:

• My friend, Amy, visited and we went for a walk.  The weather was spring-like with temperatures in the mid to upper 60 degree range.  We may get snow at the end of the week which is also spring-like around here.

• We had breakfast for dinner.  Keziah spent a few minutes looking for maple syrup before stating that we would need to be frugal with our syrup usage tonight.  To this I was able to respond, "No, we don't".  Then I went up to my bedroom and found my emergency maple syrup stash.  Doesn't everyone have one of those?  
• I dug and added soil and watered and planted two different kinds of peas in the garden.  Fingers are crossed that this year the garden will produce better than last year.
• Peppermint stick ice cream.

Sunset.
