Coffee after exercising, alone this morning.

Just the cats and me at home, my Dad left early for the drive north. He has several people to try and see today, and is hoping to reach his furthest appointment before nightfall so that he has only easier ones tomorrow and he can get back for candles. I will be cutting paper patterns after I have designed the new pieces to add to my catalogue for leather goods for women. The two ideas I hope will freshen up what I offer to my clientele, and might spark some orders from previous clients.

The day is likely to be a lonely one, unless my sister FaceTimes today.
