Friday is my day I wear red. Even if I’m not headed anyplace special I still wear a red shirt on Friday. Although I’ll probably go out to pick up Chinese food. The place is being extra cautious. They have the door fixed up so you don’t go inside but pick up sidewalk side. Extra heavy duty plastic barriers to put your money and to take out your food. They DON’T take debit/credit cards; CASH ONLY. I get my amount due when I call then give enough so they also get a tip. It has worked well for me lately. I was quite excited yesterday with playing Free Cell game; I did my best moves and time ever. Now I have a goal to do even better eventually. I guess with this quarantined, little things amuse me. My JULY piece is about me joining the Forty and Eight (40&8) honor society veterans group. They finally opened it up for female membership back in 2007. To become a member you are invited to become one. My husband had been member but not active. Finally I was approached and asked to join; so I did. Funny thing, I never expected to be anything but a member. Well I became the local Voiture’s (chapter) Chef de Gare (Commander). It was quite an experience for me. My Friday piece centers around being how Friday seems to crawl when waiting for weekend to begin. These days, being retired, it doesn’t matter really; but when I was employed the day crawled. I know many employed feel the same way.
As I said my only plans are picking up take out but now I realize I need few items at the store so there’s another trip. Will probably do it all at same time.
Today is National Peach Ice Cream Day; enjoy if possible.
Until next time....it’s World Emoji Day also; have good Friday and don’t forget wear your mask 😷😷😷😷.

July 17th....DAILY REFLECTIONS
Wearing my red today even though I may
not be going anyplace....I’m still
supporting our troops and
Remembering
Everyone
Deployed
Looking forward to my daily Free Cell
challenge....yesterday I beat my
record....1 minute, 26 seconds and
I did it in 82 moves
Little things exciting during this quarantine
period....wondering if I can get Old Maid
card game app....that’ll keep me
amused for awhile

Joining the Forty and Eight veterans group,
I’d never thought I could
Until I was asked one day and
decided that I would
Little did I know at the time that I could ever
go so far
You see I ended up being my Voiture’s, first
female Chef de Gare

FRIDAY TO END
© Scottie-ann Murphy
The sun has risen
Birds chirp in the trees outside my window
I hear the buzzing of the bees 🐝
as they pollinate the flowers
A wonderful day to be thankful
Friday finally arrives
Many hope the day goes fast
But there are times Fridays are slow
Moving snail 🐌 like
Second....by second........
Minute....by minute........
Hour....by hour........
The clock ⏰ hands don’t seem to move
But as the saying goes
‘A watched pot never boils’
We wait patiently for Friday to end
And the weekend to begin
