Happy Juneteenth. For those of you not familiar with the holiday, here's what it says on the internet: "Juneteenth commemorates an effective end of slavery in the United States. Juneteenth (short for “June Nineteenth”) marks the day when federal troops arrived in Galveston, Texas in 1865 to take control of the state and ensure that all enslaved people be freed."
Our forecast has changed a little bit. We have a chance of some showers this week which will be welcomed.
No Meals on Wheels today because of Juneteenth.
Breakfast - None
Lunch - Mac and cheese from the KFC meal
Dessert/Snack - Cinnamon muffin and decaf coffee
Dinner - Spinach/artichoke ravioli
What did you eat yesterday?

It's sweltering in the south. Hope it warms up for you. It's around 80 here.

@MommyOfEli2013 A freeze warning? That's ridiculous! It's almost July.

@LindaOHio Where my husband is from it's going to be like 113 tomorrow. I'd take the 80s. It only got to the low 60s today. Tonight there is a freeze warning.

I wonder why Juneteenth wasn’t a National holiday until recently.

@lovebuglena I don't know. They feel reparations are due them or something like that.

It's a holiday but not for everyone. The Federal workers, post office, etc. are closed; but not everyone gets off. It's on an individual basis.
