Today is Friday the 13th. Now to many that is an unlucky day. To me, Friday the 13th is a lucky day. My son, Jerry was born on this date, in February 1970, and my granddaughter was born on this date in October, 1989. And a grandson born on this date, August 1993. Yes, I believe the 13th of the months are pretty lucky.
The sun is shinning, the breeze is moving the leaves and branches. The temperature is 84 degrees and it is 4:52 p.m. I am seeing some yellow leaves on the trees across the street. I am not sure if that is the sign that fall is on its way or if it is because it is so dry. We have had no rain. Hurricane Francis didn’t help us either. She either gave out havoc, tearing down buildings and trees, drowning yards, streets, etc. everywhere, or she totally missed sending even a drop to some of the ones who really would appreciate a little of the rain. Tina just got home, She said that it was starting to rain in Knoxville. Maybe it will find its way to Oak Ridge, and our yard.
I love to watch Sierra when Tina get home from work. She runs to the door like a puppy dog, meowing all the way, telling Tina all about her day and demanding attentions. Petting is always so nice after not having her to annoy for hours and hours. Also, Tina feeds her dinner and she is waiting for that for sure.
The weekend is here and I believe we are going to make tie blankets on Saturday, go to Karns with some stuff, put something in the crockpot, and do laundry. Oh, yes, some diamond art should be put in the mix someplace. Sunday is church and I believe we will go visit the kids and the dogs. It is Dottie’s birthday so I am sure we shall celebrate it one way or the other. She will be 21 again. That is exciting.
Quote of the day: I like living. I have sometimes been wildly despairingly acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.” Agatha Christie, 1890 – 1976, British Mystery Writer, Playwright.
Have a wonderful rest of your Friday, and a beautiful weekend. For those of you on the west coast, I hope the fires are soon out and the air quality improves quickly. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Blessings
