Today is Sunday, the second day of the Memorial Day week-end.  Today is a day to pray for all veterans, gone before us and still living.  A day to be thankful that we have had such good people willing to serve our country.

YIKES !   I'm not that fond of Friday the 13th.  The last one, I got rear-ended and then the guy who hit me left the scene and left me stuck.  I would love to stay home tomorrow and hide.  However I need to be at a conference, starts tomorrow (need to be there at 7 am) and runs thru Sunday evening.  MYy problem is that it is local, so I have to drive back and forth, plus watch grandkids tomorrow night, and several other things over the week-end.  I'm getting pulled into too many directions.  I need a vacation!   Can we just skip the 13th???

National Teachers' Appreciation Day

Celebrate by thanking a teacher today.   We have several in our family.   a son-in-law. a nephew, 3 nieces, a niece-in-law,  and   2 nephews-in-law.

My favorite teacher was 4th grade - Mrs. Garretson.  She taught us to think and treated us as she would a high school student and expected so much out us.  She truly taught us to be good students and good people.

Thank you wherever you are.
