JUST JUNE….Day 18

 Friday has come with no warning.  I heard birds outside and that meant time to rise and shine. Not sure about shining though; but I am up and about. 

Yesterday I actually thought I’m living the same day over and over again.  I get up; go see my husband then come home for something to eat.  I have no ambition to do much else.  I know each day is different due to what I’m wearing. Then again, I may not be the only person feeling like this. 

Today my shirt is red for it’s Friday; day we wear our red to remember everyone deployed. Yesterday I picked up a new red shirt from the Amvets.  Not as if I needed another red shirt. Truth I do not own a red Amvets shirt.  

The daily toy and games word yesterday was HOPSCOTCH.  I did enjoy playing this on summer evenings in Chicago. Of course the hopscotch court had to be extended to some of the side walk in front of the neighbor’s house. They had no problem as long as we washed off the court after playing. It was easy to do. We took the hose and washed away. What I did not have was colored chalk but white worked well enough.  Naturally one could not make the court on the street due to traffic. 

Hopscotch was fun as you’d get in some type of exercise but hopping and jumping.  These old games indeed were  great as hopscotch did not cost much just the price of chalk.  Now days I know they have sidewalk chalk as I’ve seen pictures of creations made by my granddaughter on the sidewalk in front of her house.  

The weird holidays for yesterday seemed all related to food and drink.  The eat your veggies day comes the day after fresh veggies day.  

I hope you all remember to put on your red.  A red shirt, tie, hat, socks, wrist band, scarf or red hair accessories.  

Until tomorrow….have a great Friday and as always Stay Safe.

                   DAILY THOUGHT

   Another day….another day

    All my days seem to be the same

      As if I’m living the same day over 

        and over 

          Only difference….not the same 

             outfit I wear or same food I eat

                   SIDEWALK FUN

Creating the hopscotch court on 

  always interesting 

  We always had to use the sidewalk in 

     front of the neighbor’s house to 

        complete it 

They never did mind….as long as we 

    washed it away when done 

No colored chalk available in my youth

  used to draw the court with plain 

    white

No fun to have to move out of the

   way when someone strolled along

     on the sidewalk
