OMG, the sun shines!

It's been raining here....a LOT.  This morning, though, the sun shines if only for a short while since we're supposed to get MORE rain.  We are about 16 inches above the yearly average. To see the sun gladdens my heart.  What also gladdens my heart is the fact that I'll be taking a trip shortly to where it's sunny and warm and far, far away.  These next few days will be busy deciding what to take, making sure bills are paid, and doing some housekeeping.  I'm going to the place my parents honeymooned ever so long ago.  While I know the place(s) have changed it will still be a memorable trip.  I'll take lots of photos and will try to post some so you know where I went.  Meanwhile, y'all have a blessed day.

News wanted

There are a few people I follow here.  Unfortunately if something goes wrong I have no way of finding out what it is or how that person is.  I don't have emails or such for relatives or friends.  I do know that one is in the VA and if his baby sis could let me know how he is doing I'd appreciate it very much.

Meanderings

I've become tired.  Tired of the violence, tired of the gimme generation, tired of political correctness, tired of listening to the liberals who want to take from the haves to give to the have nots, tired of helicopter moms, tired of university profs who think their students' feelings shouldn't be hurt, tired of seeing children's games banned because a child might get a skinned knee.  Just plain tired.  It's gotten to where I just want to curl up in my recliner, knit and forget the outside world even exists.  Of course I can't do that.  Life must go on after all and I have much to do. So I will smile and carry on.  And I won't watch the news.
Y'all have a good day.
