Hi Ho, Hi Ho!

Another beautiful day in the neighborhood has arrived! I was awakened too early by a ringing telephone and I immediately decided that I would be grumpy and sound sleepy to the person by my tone of voice. I did. Knowing that she had destroyed the perfect ending to a fairy tale dream, my friend, who is out of town for 3 months, started laughing, saying that I never stay home since she kept trying to contact me last night when I was out having fun. Because I was already behaving like several of the Seven Dwarfs (I'm having trouble recalling all 7 dwarfs, can only remember 4: Sleepy, Grumpy, Doc & Dopey. Can you HELP me? Come on, the winner will be crowned "Disney's Doofus of the Day"), I immediately changed her name to "Dopey"! With her bubbly conversation, I soon forgot my initial reaction and my promise to myself to be a butthead all day. Ever since, I have been flitting around the house, singing "Hi Ho, Hi Ho, it's off to work we go..." (Oh no, not another day with these old songs running in and out of my brain! My computer tells me this is Saturday and I am working!... well, not overly hard, just doing some of Monday's chores today.)

The sun is shining but it's very chilly today. Maybe I will forget the chores, grab a good book or find a good movie on TV, snuggle under my warm lap Blankie, and enjoy a few hours. Hmm. I had another thought: why not settle down for a nap to make up for the call I received from "Dopey" early this morning!!
