Last Holiday of Summer

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. The pool in the complex was luke warm just as I like it and local musicians were there to entertain us. It was hot again so we didn't stay as long as we would have otherwise. Now I'm dressed in my coolest clothes sitting on the deck Mylotting. I want to read more in Silver Bay, a book written by JoJo Moyes and write a letter to my nephew this evening. So, I'd better get on to answering comments. I hope all of you enjoyed the holiday. We did. Remember it's the last holiday of summer. Make the most of it.

It sounds like you have had a good day. I have been taking it pretty easy today. Town is pretty quiet and that is unusual but I figure everyone is having BBQ's and stuff. Yes no more holidays for this summer.

@RubyHawk It sure is. I will be ready to do that stuff next year. I am tired of not doing things and it is going to change.

Aside from taking my dog for her walks, I went out to the backyard and did some much needed weed pulling and trimming. Otherwise, I have been working on Artist Trading Cards to--well, trade.

@RubyHawk They're little peices of "art" that people created on (usually) 2 1/2 x 3 1/2" cards, and--trade. I belong to a Facebook group that does it.

We were on the road today between Rochester and Buffalo and we stopped at a couple of antique malls.

So did I. That was a good book. I hope this one is half as good. So many situations in Me Before You. I could hardly put the book down.

@Kandae11 I thought she should have gotten out of the situation earlier but she really had no choice because of her sister.

@RubyHawk Unless you are in it you could never know how that guy was feeling - his fears, pain , regret. so I can't say if I agree or disagree with his decision - but I think I would have held on for as long as possible . What did you think?

For some it is a holiday, for many it is just another day of work.

It was all right we were ready to get back home in the A C anyway. I still haven't read a lot of the book. I'll know soon if it's any good.

It was really hot yesterday in the Chicago area almost 90 degrees. Today we have a high of 67 and it's currently 58 out there. Strange weather here lately.

We had a drought a few years ago that dried up everything and water was short. Do you live in the city or country?

That's right, today is the last holiday of summer. It would of been my grandmother's birthday today. She would be 117 if she was still here. Happy Labor Day to one and all who celebrate this holiday. We don't have this holiday in France.

@RubyHawk We just stayed home, for the entire weekend. Nobody stopped by and Jay watched football most of the day. It was nice, not having to go anywhere!

You still write letters and post it to your nephew? Cool. (I only do that with Christmas cards these days.)
