It's Tuesday and usually I start working after the weekend is over. That usually means Monday but yesterday for us was a holiday. It was Memorial Day. It was a nice day with the family. We cooked out and actually sat down at the dining room table and ate as a family. The day usually makes me cry at some point because we watch the Memorial Day programs for at least some of the day and to see some of the stories is heartbreaking. This year they added in the essential workers and first responders from this pandemic. That is what made me cry this year because while we're supposedly reaching the end of the pandemic, these workers are going back to work to get lay off letters. Being closed for so long or not being able to operate as usual a lot of businesses are filing bankruptcy and are laying off many workers. We talked to a friend at my husband's job on Saturday and while he's back to work, the company is taking precautions. So far, no lay offs. Fingers crossed it stays that way. Oh well, the day for tears was yesterday. Today is the day of work. I have a ton of computer work to do and I get to sit here and do that while being able to look at my new rose tree. I saved her from Lowes a few weeks ago and she's just doing great. She still needs a little TLC but she'll be back stronger than ever soon. What are you up to today? *picture from google
