There is nothing redolent related to the ACA or the Obama administration. Nothing. Summer however, in rural America, is charmingly redolent, until my hay fever kicks in.

Had a painful morning so I took a nap forgetting all about you all. I hope no one got in trouble out in the halls today waiting for the classroom door to open.

Actually, that is how I met my husband -- hovering over a radiator waiting for the HS doors to open. 55 years later...I hope our HS students from our Parish (St. Francis Borgia of Cedarburg) have been behaving themselves in Tioga Center this week. There should be 40 of them (including adult sponsors) helping on projects there.

I wish they could take your pain away. Time and patience will take care of it.

I found a book yesterday, the lead character was on his way to double knee replacement surgery as the book opened. I am not at all sure if it’s wise to be reading this at this time. LOL I keep drifting off to my own memories.

Pain is much briefer and shorter these days, no pain meds since Saturday night when my leg swelled up last.

I suspect they may be gone by Sat. night. They left our parish last Sunday. Maybe they’ll still be there. They’ve worked very hard to pay for this trip, and their last fund raiser (a car wash) was rained out. We’re still eating soup that I boought from them earlier in the year. They make great soup and sell to to the parish. I always buy several quarts to stock my freezer. I assume that it is their mothers who are making the soup. LOL.

When I wrote “last” Sunday, I meant Sunday the 13th.

We got this starting today. Maybe not "paradise" but it's a happy site.

After the Texans’ last year, no one should be acting all that.
