Today has been amazing! Its warm outside and I got to remove my shoes and socks inside. I love the feel of the hardwood floors under my feet. This makes me crave Summer even more, when I can walk in the cool grass, soothing to my feet. Or even laying in the cool grass under a tree, looking at the sky, seeing people or things or even animals forming as clouds. Yep, I may be old but I wont ever stop doing all of the above. Even when I can`t get up and down, I will pay someone to wheel my bed outside, just so I can see the sky and feel the air. How was your day?

Sounds like you had a nice day. It is really nice and warm weather here in Minnesota as well - apparently it hit 40 degrees Farenheit at some point --- I don't know since I have been at work all day and morning. But dang! What a nice day to have off. What's the weather like there?

Sunny. 40 degree weather here would put me inside with the heat cranked up.

We just came in from outside. The sunset is a little later every day and right now it is just beautiful out, there is no wind at all and the sky is that beautiful colour, not quite completely dark yet the stars are shining where they can. Tomorrow they are calling for more mild weather and possibly some rain.

It has been reasonably productive I guess. I spent a lot of time on mylot, and my other sites, and I cleaned my kitchen counters and made a meatloaf...so pretty good I guess.

@andriaperry Haven't gone around barefoot in a long time. When I was little in the summertime you couldn't keep the shoes on my feet.

Oh Andria I have a question for you. I have carpet here in my house in Florida and I want to have it steam cleaned. Do you have carpet in any of your homes and do you worry about mold with steam cleaning? Now I can imagine the joy of taking off your socks and shoes it is warm here today too!!

@andriaperry Thank you that makes good common sense. Do you think the ceiling fan is enough? I was thinking about whether I should buy a steamer like I use at home or just have Stanley Steamer come in.

No, don`t` worry as long as you have air circulating you`ll be fine. I clean the rentals carpet all the time, I just set a fan in the floor.

Lol! I love the outdoors, but am always afraid of going barefoot. There may be a spider or snake just hiding in the grass waiting for me. It happened before. Chills! Today was fun. Spent time with a friend and managed a two hour walk with a friend in glorious sunshine (for a change) while wearing sneakers. Btw, your hair looks wonderful and curl free in your avatar!

When Mum was in hospital at 99 after a hip replacement we wheeled hed bed outside for a while. I'm sure it did her good.

It was nice and warm and good to be outside, but Old man winter still has a few punches to throw before it is spring again

I remember wheeling my grandma outside in a stretcher so she could watch her great granddaughter (my late niece) play in the park by the hospital. I hope she appreciated it.

I live in a city so do not have open space at home, but the sky is clearer nowadays though we have hot and humid climate mostly - siva

its a real good feeling watching the sky, the clouds formation, the beauty of God's creations, the gentle breeze of wind on our face. I share with you this simple joy of doing these things.
