What's happening around the homestead? Is there hope for this week? Do the "goods" outweigh the "bads" or should I go back to bed? Here's the tally, as I see it. My Apple Watch has shipped-- 2-4 weeks early! But Jill Swenson reports from Minnesota that Jell-O may be on the verge of disappearing. Whatever will happen to church suppers and neighborhood potlucks? My birthday month is almost here. But Ronni Bennett says that the movers and shakers of the world no longer care about my opinions because I'm one of the old (really old) folks. The Memphis Grizzlies have won three in a row in the playoffs. But point guard Mike Conley is out with multiple facial fractures after taking an elbow to the face in the last game. One Lion friend was named to the North Carolina Hall of Fame, and another was elected as District Governor in Florida this past weekend. But in Tennessee another Past District Governor and long-time friend has died. The sun is shining (at least for a few minutes). But it's cold! "Damned Yankee" is one year old this week, and it has sold over 800 copies on Kindle. But I'm still bogged down at the half-way point of its sequel, "Yankee Reconstructed." But we still don't know if it's a prince or a princess. On the whole, I think I'll make the best of this week, because, after all: My Apple Watch will be here tomorrow! |
