A "B'n"Day

No, not a Birthday, just a lot of B’s in today’s activities. I’ve still got a cold from Thanksgiving. I thought it was almost gone on Monday night But it came Back and has stayed with me.


My Breakfast was raisin Bran. Penny suggested I take it easy today because of the cold, so I took a Break from any real work or chores. We relaxed and watched last weeks Grey’s Anatomy. It was a Beautiful day today so I suggested we go see what Rocky Bayou State Park looked like. We graBBed our cameras an apple and a Bottle of water each and headed out to hike the park’s trails. We haven’t Been to the park since the hurricanes and we knew that it sustained a lot of damage 2 years ago. It was evident when we walked the trails. There were Broken and dead trees everywhere. Fortunately the park is recovering nicely and we enjoyed our hike. In keeping with my take-it-easy day we kept a leisurely pace on the trails. We hiked for aBout 1-½ hours. It’s a small park But the trails were nice and it has a good-sized picnic area right along Rocky Bayou. We also checked out the Boat ramp for potential future kayak launchings. We Both ate our apples at aBout the half way point But we were hungry for lunch when we left the park.

We stopped at Hungry Howie’s and had Baked suBs for lunch. Penny kept the little pizza Boxes for possiBle use as mailing Boxes for some of her handiwork. Since we were in the shopping center we couldn’t not go to Bayou Books, one of Penny’s favorite places to Browse. We also hit the supermarket there to Buy some Butter (well, margarine actually But Butter starts with a “B”). Then we went Back home to Be greeted By Brie when we came in the door.


I relaxed in the Bedroom for aBout a half-hour with Brie napping at my feet. Then I went Back to writing on my Book. I just checked my word count and I am at 16,500. The plot is now Beginning to thicken. I’m inventing the story as I go. I know where I want to go and I’m figuring out how to get there.

At 4:30 all 5 cats were outside so I spent some time petting them and then fed them their ration of canned food for the day.

Now I’m sitting here Blogging as Penny whips up a Batch of her luscious Beef stew.

So that’s my B’n day. Tomorrow is Friday. I hope it’s not an F’n day don’t you?
