Beautiful Day

Hello, It is such a nice day here. We hung out three loads of clothes and all dried well. Love the smell of outdoor dried sheets. We both got our ten thousand steps. We went to a hardware store to get a stronger magnet to hang my new pot holders. The pot holders are apparently heavier than the last set because the magnetic hook just slid down the wall of the refrigerator. This magnet was touted as being able to hold twenty pounds. It certainly is a solid hold. I am pleased. In the hardware store, Leroy wanted to look at a good latch for the little free library. On the way to the latches, we walked by some amaryllis blubs. They were even on sale. I had dug up my bulb from its outdoor home only to stab it with the fork because I miss judged the larger size. It does not look too bad, but I am not sure it will live. It was exciting to find these at such a good price. We talked to Brian this afternoon and he sounds quite fine. Such a difference from Miriam a day after her surgery. Brian is a little anxious to get to drive again. This time it was his right leg so he will have to wait a longer time for that to happen. He is also tired of sitting around so much even after just one day. The Instant pot was given its trial run today and it was indeed easy and quick. It is perhaps safer than the pressure cooker that I used to have. Certainly it is easier to operate since it is not on the stove but controlled by the controls in it. Paula
