SpringTIME!!! in These titles mean nothing.

This pic could have used a little zoom and cropping both.

The lovely woman at the library showed me how to zoom. The cam doesn’t have a LOT of zoom - I suppose the quality of the image allows one to crop the photo rather than zoom it. I will work at it.

We were going to download an app or two but I didn’t seem to have the right password to do it. Since I wanted to do Wisconsin Public Radio’s app, she said I might find a fair amount of what I want on podcasts. I will investigate.

Hey I got a question for you. What’s the best compliment you’ve ever gotten? Perhaps the best three or four?

I’m reminded by the comments on the the last entry rating my appearance against that of the cat. I appreciate your responses. The cat was kinda thrilled as well.

Two compliments I can think of right now -

Years ago - in the early 1990s - my husband and I drove our new Ford F-250 to Winona MN on a weekend afternoon. The truck was the only new vehicle we ever bought and it was expensive and it was new, so there was that glow - even though it didn’t turn out to be a really good purchase . We kept it forever ------ until it got rusty and had a lot wrong with it. But that day it was in its new vehicle bloom. Winona has a couple of colleges and a group of students had a fund raiser going in which they washed your car So we let them wash the truck. Turned out it was boys doing the business part of the enterprise and girls doing the work and the truck was too big for them to reach. But they tried.

Later we drove through the town and came across a yard sale. For some odd reason I wanted to stop..... books, perhaps? I don’t remember what I bought but I must have bought something because when I paid for it, the man taking the money said he loved my hair. It was long and gray at the time and probably clean, but it was a lovely compliment.

The other compliment came not long ago from son Jim. I should have him here to get the words right though I’m not sure he would have known what he said.
It was something like he learned from me the importance of words and of choosing the right ones.

I met one of the kids’ old high school teachers in the grocery store parking lot today. We talked about life a while. He’s glad he was a teacher. He taught art in our high school and then later in the not too far away community college. He asked about my husband’s family. People like to figure out how the various branches are related. We stood by Joana’s truck and I explained in such a way that I doubt he understood. We talked about our kids. He said he remembered my kids, but I wonder if teachers ever do. Remember kids.

Anyway.

See you later.

I’m cooking hamburgers for supper. With cheese on top. Cheeseburgers, one might say.

Have a good day, a good night, a good tomorrow and a good weekend. Time is moving by.
