Even when things are not at their best we all look forward to some kind of peace on a holiday weekend.
For those of us stuck in a hospital or something similar I think our loved ones try to make us feel a bit involved by either feeding you holiday foods or having a gathering or activity to make you feel a part of it all. For those of us who are too busy to plan anything, usually a neighbor or family member tries to make certain you are included in the celebration and able to put aside your stress for a wee bit of time. On this Memorial Day Weekend I hereby order you all to “try.” If only for an hour, or a day, try to smile about what this weekend means to you and to us as a nation. Not only will you be able to do that but the weather is truly amazing here on the east coast. In Southern NJ we normally like to spend this weekend, the official opening of summer, complaining about it being too cold, rainy, damp or cloudy. Well, not this year! Temperatures are in the 90’s and I could not stay outside to work in the yard too long since it is so very hot and more of a shock than anything else to my system. So, with all of that said, put your worries aside, smile, and enjoy. Tell me what you’ll be doing. Me? I am enjoying getting myself organized for summer.
