“Sit”





My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. The Terrific Tomato Tart Robert and I made this week with tomatoes from nearby Davis Produce.





2. Watching the Braves beat the Cardinals 8-5 at Truist Park last night.



3. The ability to laugh at ourselves and not take ourselves so seriously.
4. Grandson Daniel “being all shy” singing The National Anthem at the yearly kickoff celebration of the United Way of the Coastal Empire at the Savannah Convention Center.
Practicing the day before …

The event …


You can hear him here …
I asked his mom, Amy, if Daniel gets nervous at large events such as this.
“He’s not the slightest bit nervous. But I am a wreck until it’s over.”
5. Living in a world with so many wonderful books to read. Here is the current novel HR and I are reading together. Robert does most of the driving, so I read aloud. This is our 178th book together.

(May the book banners be banned.)
And may your weekend ahead be a personal anthem of joy and freedom.
“Preparation”

(More detail in this week’s upcoming Five Friday Happy Bringers.)
A blog category of pics I’ve taken of HR (Hubby Robert) and … well, just about anything.
Robert and … a BIG plant and a little plant.

Working on our front-of-the-apartment “garden” today.

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.
1. HR’s homemade version of the Egg McMuffin. Really good!


(Should I make him apply for a job at McDonald’s?)
2. Surviving Idalia here in my Savannah.

But nothing too bad where we are near the river. Thanksgiving!
3. This article about trees in Atlanta. PLEASE READ IT. It’s so much more than just about trees.

Here’s the link:
4. My (and your) ability to make decisions. To weigh pros and cons.
5. The Joy of Friday. Maybe it’s because I am a retired educator, but every Friday morning brings me a bit of unfiltered joy, the beginning of the weekend!

May this Friday introduce a joyous weekend ahead for you.
