The sentiment is sincere.. I do want you to have a GREAT day. For myself, it's a great day because I am alive and kicking and able to walk, drive, or do that which I desire just because I do. I'm a bit fearful of what is to come after the first of next year when all the new tax laws come into effect and we all lose big time no matter.. even we who live next to poverty will be even more impoverished.. do you ever wonder if it will really happen or where it all will end?
Asthma and allergies are my biggest problem at the moment, but even these aren't as bad as a few years ago when I had one asthma attack after another and lost my voice every time I walked outdoors. UGH. It's hot here and summer is coming to a close rapidly. Winter will be upon us before you know it, though it's my least favorite season of the year.. it'll give me some allergy relief. I noticed a couple weeks ago how our temperatures have been fluctuating- cool nights and mornings with hot days.. dropping leaves each time the wind blows.. and trees not so green as July.. colors starting to appear. Tent caterpillers are on trees and my biological clock has tripped the 'fall mode' as I begin also having GI upsets which is common in the spring and fall. I can't eat those tomatoes that I grew.. sad.
The tomatoes are blighted anyway. I've collected a number of the larger ones to ripen indoors before the virus gets to them. So far.... so good.
Today is the Vulhops anniversary.. WOW! time sure flies, eh? Happy Anniversary Keith and JJ... I love you both.
In a couple of weeks we shall be making a trip to see the Valentines. We are planning our own birthday celebration since we couldn't get there for the July birthdays.. That makes us behind on gifts.. and including the August birthdays.. well, that will be taken care of on Labor day when we have a picnic together to celebrate the last of summer. We haven't cooked out much this year.. but perhaps next year we will be able to do that more often.
Our new deck will be on after Labor Day.. more space for a big table.. smiling here.
Off to supper..
