Today was a fairly productive day as my days generally go. I went to my appointment in Memphis, made some necessary phone calls and even sent cards to some sick friends. I also wrote two letters to my Compassion child in Ecuador. I had received three letters from him over the last couple of weeks and sent him some Tennessee postcards and letters about what spring is like here in the U.S.A.
I made a couple of trips up into Western Kentucky last week. One advantage of having a GPS is that you can, after rambling down back roads all morning, just put in "Home" and arrive safely back in your own driveway.
Springtime is always a difficult season for me. I generally have more energy than in the winter, but sometimes sleeping becomes a problem which leads to fatigue and irritability. I would have to say that, although I love the flowers, spring is my least favorite season. This is particularly true due to the fact that we in West Tennessee often have a false spring with warm days turning back into winter weather. This repeats several times and is taxing on making outdoor plans or planning trips.
I hope that spring is here to stay at last and soon the storms will pass and lead us into all the fun activities of the late spring and summer. We will get there-one day at a time.
The photo is from my trip to Kentucky last Tuesday. The gravel road had turned muddy, but I went far enough to snap this picture.
