SUMMER’S HERE....July 11th



JULY pieces have been a challenge along with the weekday acrostic ones.  Not sure what challenges my husband will throw at me for  next week.  I ended up with two SATURDAY pieces due to fact it came in bits and pieces in my mind.  The second SATURDAY tells it like it is.  The day most catch up on things not done during the week.  One needs to do it all by noon so that the afternoon and evening is for rest and relaxing.  The first deals with taking each day and situation in stride; be positive.
It’s hard to keep positive in these unsettling times but as I’ve said time and again stress does not help.  Just keep rolling with the flow; and other positive cliches.  I was up at 6:00am this morning which is early for me.  Generally my wake up time is 7:00am when my neighbor puts the dog out.  Doggy has become my alarm clock.  Today I was awake but no dog at seven.  Perhaps the neighbors were sleeping in today. The weather has really been on the humid side.  There are days I don’t even want to venture out even for taking out the trash.  Wearing a mask places in humid weather is not easy.  Bad enough some people have hard time with it being humid but then to be masked.  I don’t know if it’s just me, but I’ve found stores not  to be as cool as usual.  I wonder if they are keeping their air conditioning high so people won’t be too comfortable walking around. It seems they want you in and out and not browsing.  Today is National Mojito Day.  I’ve never had one.  
Until tomorrow....enjoy the first day of the weekend.

         July 11th....DAILY REFLECTIONS 

Early morning mowing I hear outside at
              7:00 am.....guess they 
                 want to get done before it gets 
               too hot....can’t blame them

 I was up at 6:00 am....most mornings it’s 
      barking dog that’s my alarm....it usually 
            wakes me at 7:00....it’s 7:15 the 
                      neighbor‘s dog not out 
                           yet....guess he was 
                              going to let me sleep   
                                     in today

Now that I’m up and about I guess I’ll write 
          a short blog....or play my daily Free 
                  Cell challenge....my best moves 
                      in the game is 83....best time a 
                           little under two minutes

   January first brought us hope for a better 
                 year than last

        Unfortunately things have not worked 
                   out how we planned for 2020

               Life took a strange turn when 
                        COVID-19 quarantined us all

                      Year has only five months to 
                             go, what will happen

Sometimes in life you may end up with 
     lemons or sometimes limes 

Always look for the positive in everything 
        and it will work out fine

Take the frown on your face turn it upside       
              down

Understand no one likes to see an angry 
        face with a nasty scowl

Remember that things can go astray, there 
      is nothing you can do

Don’t let that be a deterrent and don’t get 
            upset or blue

And always look for a silver lining in cloudy 
          skies of gray

You need to take it all in stride; take hold       
            and seize the day

                    SATURDAY

Saturday begins the weekend, hip hip 
                   hurray 
Also today is your chore and your errand 
         catch up day 
Things you could not accomplish doing the 
      rest of the week
Unfortunately they must be done, so don’t 
            you dare shriek 
Rest and relaxing for you is going to have 
                  to wait
Do what you need to do this morning, that 
            is your fate 
After everything is all complete, it’s finally 
            time for R&R
You deserve it, yes siree you do, cause you 
        worked very hard
