A few things caught my attention today. First, and this one made me laugh, there was a flyer in my mail box, and evidently everyone else's in the building, offering free window inspections and window replacement estimates. Now I may be wrong but I can't imagine our apartment management being thrilled if everyone started ordering replacement windows for their apartments. Don't get me wrong. These buildings are sixty years old and could use some replacement windows, but still I don't think we can order them for individual apartments. On another topic, my west coast brother informed me that today is Talk Like Shakespeare Day and also Cherry Cheesecake Day. Forsooth and, alas and alack, while I did dine out this evening, cherry cheesecake was not on the menu. So we had to make do with churros (delicious). And finally, because we celebrated Earth Day at church today (I know it's one day late) people on the Green Team kept trying to give me packets of flower seeds. I explained to at least four people that I live in a 10th floor apartment and don't have a garden. Of course I do have a garden but it's outside the ground floor front door and will be really quite lovely in a few weeks (as soon as Mother Nature stops her mood swings) and all I need to do is praise the gardeners when I happen to see them working outside. Someone asked me recently if I miss gardening. The short answer is no. Sorry if that disappoints anyone.
