I'm Running Late. Have to Get Moving

My cupboards are no longer bare - or at least my refrigerator is once again stocked with my cooked fruit for breakfast. I'm quite pleased about that because I was completely OUT! A rare occasion. But yesterday I picked up more pears and added apples and blueberries and nectarines to the mix. It's going to be wonderfully tasty and I'm already looking forward to my first portion after my morning swim. 




Properly speaking, my fruit is roasted, not baked, 
and yesterday I used pears, apples, nectarines and 
added some blueberries into the mix (the photo is 
NOT what I cooked, but it's similar). I add chopped 
nuts to the mix as well. It's a perfect breakfast meal 
for me. 



Aearwen and I had a lovely chat yesterday afternoon to cap off my day. All in all, it was a perfect day, and I don't get those often. Everything clicked into place, no electronics had hissy-fits, no unexpected errands cropped up, and everything worked like clockwork. My days aren't usually like that, so I was quite pleased. 




Yesterday was almost perfect. Not quite, but closer than 
it's been in months. I'll take it! 



The outdoor pool opens tomorrow, and it's been COLD outside. Now, it's not a Minnesota winter cold - not subzero with blizzard conditions (thank goodness!), but it's been in the mid 40's in the mornings and that's cold for running in and out of the outdoor pool. I'm glad I don't swim outdoors until next Tuesday, although I don't think we're getting any big warm-up before then either *sigh*. I like swimming in the outdoor pool - seeing the sun rise while swimming, and having that Olympic length are both serious plusses. But I really HATE the run out and back again until summer temperatures really take hold. Summer temps are NOT here yet. 




The YMCA outdoor pool opens over the weekend. I'll be 
swimming outdoors, welcoming the sunrise for the next 
few months. I enjoy the outdoor pool, but it's a cold run 
to and from the building. 



I guess I don't have much to say today - LOL - and I'm also running low on time, so I'll just wish all of you a wonderful Thursday and I'll be back tomorrow. Be kind, listen to others, pet your non-human companions, and celebrate another day of life. Slava Ukraini.
