A SAD WEEK

A good laugh,
and a long sleep
are the two best
cures for anything.

~ Irish Proverb

This has been a sad week and
I am thankful it's a short one.
We lost our dog Amy [I posted
about her here]. to cancer; I
miss her.

It has been miserable hot and the
humidity has been so heavy you
can wear it. I'm glad to be surrounded
by water so I can head to the beach
when it all becomes too much.
Winter can't come soon enough
for me.

The blueberries are still in season
so berry picking has been added
to my daily to do list.  There is a
granddaddy long leg that greets
me every morning, I call him Van,
[after Van Johnson].

I always pick figs on the 4th of July,
but this year the figs aren't even showing
signs of ripening. I have not been
able to follow my food gathering
schedule at all this season.  Crazy
weather.

I exhaled deeply that the first hurricane
of the season will miss us, but I am
sorry for all those who are in its path
and I hope it doesn't cause much damage.

I ordered new glasses which will be in
next week. It will be so nice to see the
world a little more clear.

Tomorrow it the 4th of July and I wish
you all a safe and fun day. Enjoy the
long weekend.

Love,
Tracey
