Daybook for July 17

i wrote this yesterday afternoon while sitting in the park, which is just behind my apartment building. it was really hot (35 c) but i didn't get much relief being outside either. here's the simple woman's daybook link if you are interested in posting yours.

For Yesterday
July 17, 2009 around 4:00 pm

i can see ... the park gardener watering with a garden hose and no sprayer, just his finger, a lady reading on a bench, guys playing basketball, birds, pink, yellow and white flowers, lots of green all around

i am thinking... the lovely earthy smell when the water hits the ground ... reminds me of the past, in a good way

i am hearing ... water spraying from the hose, street traffic behind me, the basketball hitting the backboard, kids playing

from the kitchen... too hot to cook so going out for pizza tonight

i am wearing... black flip flops, black capri pants, green tank top, sunglasses

i am reading... books about family and relationships

i am hoping ... this good feeling lasts for a while

i am creating ... ideas

around the park ... playground, dog park, the convenience store where i get milk and veggies, antique shops, government buildings

one of my favourite things ... warm, light breezes

i am thankful for ... this feeling of relaxation

a few plans for the rest of the week ... write emails, fix pants, make card(s)

a picture to share ... my view from the bench at the park
