Acchooo!

A-h-h! Spring! O-h-h! Allergies!

Yes, I have been hit with allergies this year. This is the worse I have had to deal with my allergies for several years, but it could be much worse. I am thankful that my allergies are not like they were 30 years ago.

I found some beautiful hanging flower pots, but I still didn't get all my planting done. When I attempt to plant, my allergies worsen, so...the flowers may have to wait for a week or two.

Today is Memorial Day. How I thank all of those who gave their lives so that we can have the freedom that we so much enjoy and sometimes take for granted. I am one of those who sheds tears when I hear our National Athem, or when someone plays the theme song of one of our branches of service. Yesterday for the offertory at church one of our men played his trumpet, playing each of those theme songs. Oh yes! It brought tears to my eyes. And I thank God for living in this great country! Thank you to all of you out there who have served our country and the sacrifices you have made to keep our country free.
