April

Get in here spring!  April is usually my favorite month of the year.  I always got my best ideas in April, Andy and I were married in April, Mike was born in April, all good things happened to me in April.  But it is too slow coming this year and nothing is happening other than Andy and I have been married 59 years as of the 4th. I suppose that in itself is an accomplishment.  The daffodils were out in force this year despite the cold weather. They came for Easter and stayed a long time.

Today is beautiful and we will have a string of good days.  I hope the painter will get here although he is really busy.  People are spending money and everyone seems to be raking it in which is, of course, a good thing.  Another good thing that happened is JD, our grandson, is now a Gator.  He is spending his junior and senior years at the University of Florida.  He has a free ride to any Florida University and that's the one that will see him through.  Another good thing is Matt, another grandson, is in Japan on business and doing well with his new promotion,  Now that I read back, April seems pretty good after all. See.  We all need to stop and count our blessings.

I am not cooking today. Andy and I are running around.  We found a grill, which is not hard to do.  I wonder how many grills in our married life have we bought?  I had to drag him from the area of plants and flowers.  We always plant to soon and regret it later.
