Day 4

It's day 4.  I cleaned the house a bit this morning.  I don't like cleaning.  I never have. but wielding that vacuum cleaner up and down the stairs is pretty good exercise.  I don't even feel guilty about not going to the gym this morning.

Now I'm sitting here thinking I really need to call an insurance broker to help me navigate through the healthcare coverage nightmare that Obama has created for us.  I've tried doing it myself and though I consider myself a pretty intelligent person, I gave up.  I will do that momentarily.

Meanwhile I've been thinking about my first project and I've decided to create some pinecone creations.  I can't really explain it but I love pinecones.  I have loved pinecones all my life.  They smell good.  They are messy though since they usually have some pitch on them.  There are many different types some of which are available here in Colorado and some that are not.  It's disappointing that I cannot get any white pine cones here in Colorado.  I'll have to visit my family in New England to get those.  Not that it's a problem to visit them.  I can't wait to visit later this fall.  Perhaps I can find a box of pinecones and ship them back here.  I wonder if I could check a box on the airplane without them getting crushed before they arrived here.  hmmm.
