My son, Chuck, and I had a cook out last night. We cooked Rib eye steaks, hamburger patties, and winners. It all tasted very good. We don’t cook out as often as we used to since the most of the time no one is here to help us eat. In past time we cooked out a lot. Now it’s easier to go to an invited cookout. That happens pretty often. I am always excited to attend a community dinner where lots of friends are gathering. I am blessed to live in a community like that.
Today I will be attending a luncheon called, “Happy Timer’s.” It is also a community gathering sponsored by my church. A great meal is always prepared by some great cooks. A short time of singing old time songs,(I want a gal just like the gal that married dear old dad, A bicycle built for two, I’m looking over a four leaf clover,) and many more of the old romantic tunes. It’s amusing to see, and hear the humorous comments, and see the body movements of some of these elderly people when the music starts. After lunch a speaker gives an interesting, and often, an informative speech. It is a special time for old friends and acquaintances to meet.
I just finished listening to the President speak at the U N meeting. He is giving great speeches every time he appears before an important group. It seems to me like every speech he gives is even better than the last. This President is in it for the long haul. I believe his supporters also are forever. A spirit of victory is spreading faster now through out the nation, than the evil spirit that almost destroyed our country. I feel ten years younger than I did before President Trump got elected. I am even showing my youth more now. I can’t stop laughing at crazy us, when we gather to let our hair down. It is fun, it is therapy, and it is strengthening our faith. It makes us want to live another one hundred years. Our concerns for family, and friends, are still plentiful, but we just don’t let them bother us as much. The joys seems to be overtaking them. I know I am preparing myself for a crash tomorrow, but I have insurance. I will not be stranded for long. I am so often reminded of the old quote, “if life gives you lemons make a pie.” What a good idea. I love lemon pie.
I must stop and get ready for the luncheon. Maybe I can share some of the good stuff about it with you tomorrow. I know there will be interesting things to take home with us. Such as jokes, and seriousness, as well. I am looking forward to a grand time today. I must decide what to wear, and that takes a lot of time. My mood doesn’t always cooperate with my wardrobe. Funny? I know it, but can’t do nothing about it.
God Bless
