Mini vacation

Quick phone post today.

The weather is like early fall here in Schaumburg this week. Wehave taken in a little shopping and just kicking back.

I have finished the second book in the Dark Tower series and am about to start the third as soon as I finish this post.

Here’s a view of my reading spot for the afternoon.

I was hanging out at the covered patio reading yesterday during a brief rain shower when I was joined by one if these little fellows.

In case you can’t tell he is literally inches from my foot. Here’s proof.

No doubt he was hoping  for a handout but he went away disappointed. 

I actually pulled out my knitting last night and worked a few rounds. Didn’t take a picture to prove it but maybe I can do one better and have it finished by next post. I am ever the optimist.

Maybe Brookfield Zoo tomorrow.  Later!
