Egg Salad

I just made the tastiest egg salad for my lunch ever. Usually it is just boiled egg, a little mayo, a little mustard and salt and pepper. Today I added chopped celery, craisins, and sunflower seeds - yum yum. Great on one-half of a toasted English muffin.

I cut all my grass yesterday evening, and since I didn't start until 7 p.m., I barely finished before dark. I know winter is coming because it is getting dark earlier . That is a nice thought with the heat index over 105 degrees today! Whew! The last time I mowed, the riding mower did not want to cut off when I decreased the throttle speed and turned off the key. This time I remembered the sensor under the seat and was ready to stand up, but it shut off as it is supposed to. Must have been operator trouble, as Jim would say .

My son called a few nights ago, and asked me to send him some of my stories. You could have blown me over with a feather to compare my surprise to a cliche. I'm thinking about Me and the Rooster and Dancing in the Moonlight. It must be really boring in North Dakota!

Yesterday, I started a little weight-lifting routine (per my doctor) to tone-up my wings (not for flying). I know the exercises are working because I have sore arms this morning. My doc says every other day, ten reps, twice each. We shall see...

until next time...c
