THE SEAL OF OAK RIDGE, TENNESSEE

Monday, February 7, 2022 Sunny Cold Breeze Cold 50 degrees 4:11 p.m.

The first Monday of the Second Month of the year 2022. Today is Constitution Day Observed in Mexico. My calendar is full of inessential information that might be useful on Jeopardy. The true day if this occasion was last Saturday but I guess they felt that they needed a holiday, day off work, so are observing it today.

Today was garbage day. The garbage man came around in their nice new truck, had the arm with the claw go out and grab the trash can, pick it up and dumb it in the back of the truck. I only saw that it missed once and the garbage man had to get out of the truck and pick up all that garbage and throw it in the truck. I be he is glad that people use garbage bags.

The weekend was busy. Saturday was sunny but cold with a high of 39 degrees. We went to Dottie’s and helped her go through stuff that she wants to sort and get rid of what she no longer wants or needs. Of course we did more visiting then actual work and it was fun. Max, the dog, seemed to enjoy all the looking and sorting . So entertaining when there is something to look into. He is so cute. What she didn’t want we took to Karns on the way home. As we got near the house the traffic was stopped. We saw that there was an accident and it looked like it would be a while so we turned off onto a side street and went for a ride up into the mountain and saw some lovely homes. As pretty as it was and the scenery was gorgeous, but the drop off in the back of some of the homes is far down, and some the driveways are steep so not the place to live if there is snow and ice, ore even rain. So pretty though. By the time we got back to Kingston Pike, the west lane was slowly moving so we got home o.k. The accident was pretty bad as they had a helicopter there when we started our scenic drive. It looked like a four door white pick-up truck and a older green/gray SUV were involved. So sad.

When we got home we curled up with our warm throws and watched some of the recorded shows. That was fun. Sunday Jerry and Tammy came by for f bit. Then we again went back to watching some of the recorded shows. I think we have two more to watch and then we might be caught up.

Today has been busy with household duties and me working on my story. Story worth is quite the gift given to me by my granddaughter. It really puts my brain to work and my memory to exercise.. Today I have to think what my favorite poem is. Hmm!

With that I will get busy. It is time to think about what to put on the table for the evening fare. Have a great rest of your day. Make it prosperous, pleasant, productive, positive and fun.

Blessings
