Lentils
Hi there.
How are you doing today? The weather is crazy again. Nice, cold, nice, windy, rain, nice. I don’t know what to think. Sun dress, winter jacket?
I have been spending time outside in the yard, keeping my social distance, but getting my fresh air. It is so wonderful sitting back there, sun on my face. It really makes this isolation no so bad.
Then the sun goes down, and it becomes the arctic back there. How does that happen? I go from sitting with just my t-shirt on, all comfy, to needing a hat, scarf and gloves in 2 hours.
Crazy April. I should know, its almost my birthday!
