Running behind and a little apprehensive

Was very busy today, and am running a little behind.

I am somewhat apprehensive about the next few weeks.

Here’s why.

First, August 8th is our anniversary.  This year we would be married 49 years.  We were always able to celebrate it–even last year when things were so very rough.  And then comes September.  For over 25 years  we went to Long Beach Island every year, to the same beach house for the same two weeks.  The week after Labor Day and the week after that.  It was truly paradise.  We had not gone there in many years, but September had remained one of our favorite months. September now is spoiled for me– I feel like I’m about to run the gauntlet.  So, please bear with me.

That’s about it for now.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

What more could one ask for?

Dad needed a hug and he got a great cuddle.  What more could you possibly ask for.  I would love to have that experience right about now.

A lot of this does not have sound, but it is still worth watching–what a darling little person.

Fostering needs patience–til they can relax

Little boy’s warning prevents train accident

This is from a while ago, but it is still a great story.

Lost dog re-found by her foster mom

This was a very fortunate doggie.  She spooked and took off, but was found by the one person she knew well.

To God be the glory

Wild and wacky weather today–

Today was the oddest weather day in my memory.

When I got up–very early in the morning–it was raining pretty heavily with the occasional rumble of thunder.  It really couldn’t have been called a thunderstorm, and it passed.  It cleared up, the sun came out and that seemed to be that.  But no, within another hour and a half or so, it got dark again and we had a really bad downpour for at least half an hour.  I was very glad that they had done that roof repair a while ago.  Then it stopped, the sun came out and it was fine (but very, very, humid).  Then it got pitch black  yet again and we had another downpour.   This happened a total of three times.  Right now the sun is out, but I don’t   know for how long.  The humidity, by the way, is horrendous.  It feels like the tropics.  I don’t recall this happening so many times in one day before.

Like they say–if you can live in New Jersey, you can live anywhere.

Have a good night, all.

See you tomorrow.

God bless everybody.

When a cat decides to get in on the act.

Woman was terrified of adopted cat..

This woman was really afraid of her adopted cat.  It was more her partner’s idea to get a cat, but finally she got used to it.  I don’t understand how someone could be fearful of a cat, but Napoleon had a bad fear of cats, I’ve heard.
