🇺🇸 Welcome July!🇺🇸

🇺🇸Wow! Two hundred forty five years as our own country! I can’t help but wonder what our founding fathers would think of our society today! I have my thoughts and beliefs on it, as I’m sure most other folks do, too. That’s one of the beauties of our great nation! Each person has the right to think and believe the way he (or she) chooses!  Get out this weekend. Spend time with family! Enjoy fireworks 💥 if any are available.  Celebrate being part of this great nation.  

It’s a very, very muggy 73° on the porch this morning. I hear all manner of fowl making their joyful noises.  They’re singing so happily; joyfully, playfully watching me…. 🎶 (anyone catch that reference?  Kay, I know you do!) 

It’s been a busy couple days at work. Active COVID numbers are way, way, way down.  Unfortunately, there remain some who it wasn’t kind to at all. Those folks and their loved ones continue to need our prayers.  

My buddy is still sleeping this morning.  They weren’t home when I got home last night. He ran into my room, climbed up on my bed, pulled up the covers and snuggled close. He said “coco”.  I said rugrats. He said ok.  I blocked his view for a second.  He quickly let me know that wasn’t ok.  When Tommy, Chucky, Phil & Lil and Angelica get into mischief,  X says “Oh, no!”  And he says it with such feeling! He’s so cute.  

I haven’t seen October and Perry for a few weeks now. Tobi will be 13 years old in 3.5 months. How can that be?! She was Rickys best buddy.  She went where he did. She was 13.5 months old when the tumor was found and only 16.5 months when he died. She says she remembers him.  

This weekend is more than the weekend of the fourth. Had Rick lived, the third would have been our 35th anniversary.  

It’s also the “anniversary” of a funny story from a  4th celebration involving Rick, a 2 liter bottle of diet cola and decorative towels.  Let’s just say if you know, you know.  It was so funny.  And, I still have that sippy cup in the cabinet. It still has his name written on it. We don’t use it, but it’s not going anywhere.  It makes me smile every time I see it.  I guess you just had to be there lol! 

Please remember to pray for those who are in need! Pray for our community, county, state and country!

I love all y’all!❤️

Have a blessed day!
