Day 4 - 295 -- Reflective Sunday

Writing for work took over much of the day, leaving a bit of time for the other things on the weekend list. I did some cleaning -- not all, but some -- and cooked a big pot of stew with dumplings and a wonderful plum crisp. Both very tasty. These will provide a number of quick supper meals once I get the stew into the freezer. The crisp will ensure something nutritious for the sweet item often desired for bedtime snack. So -- all in all a win for both of these. I'd hope to bake some muffins, but that will need to wait for another day.

I found the time while cooking led to reflection. Music in the background brought many memories from different time periods. I also watched Long Time Running -- the movie filmed during the final tour of The Tragically Hip. It was set for release later in November, but was shown on network TV last week as a memorial to Gord Downie. This had me reflecting on the courage, grace and love it took to do the tour and have it filmed. Other thoughts took me to pondering the weather this fall -- dry and warm. So -- an eclectic day of thoughts <smile>.

I've noticed the sun on the kitchen floor on recent sunny days. This means the earth has tilted and now provides a wonderful resting place for feline beings. My fellow smiles a lot while basking. That brought up a song. While these lyrics deal with a different season, they fit autumn well, too. Enjoy!
