“Happy” holiday !!

Television antennaThrough-the-air television isn’t working!! The weather atmospheric conditions suppress the signal. With sketchy reception, I saw news about the tornado (yesterday) that displaced residents of a large Houston apartment complex. Weak sunshine as I type this (7:10) but meteorologist’ say “enjoy the brief break” because more storms on the horizon. Furthermore, so many areas in our state are flooded. Some rivers are ten feet higher than any previous documented height!! (Flooding in my yard, by comparison, is a joke.) ~~ Counting my blessing!! ~~

Weather also limits my WiFi reception. Less than a football field length from the CARE Center… but it’s like a blanket blocks the signal (same with TV reception). But I can live–temporarily–without TV and WiFi. I’m so grateful I don’t have the expense of Direct or Dish TV, or Verizon “Hot Spot.” I’m always shocked when other CARE residents tell me how much they are paying for their TV and WiFi.

With free WiFi, last night I was searching the Internet for answers for strange pain I was experiencing. “No, not a heart attack” but what was causing the pain? I don’t have the answer. I debated going to the Emergency Room but that isn’t my nature. I took an aspirin and went to bed. Awakened feeling fine!! ~~ Counting my blessings!! ~~ I speculate the pain was delayed reaction to wrestling with the thirty-seven pound cement paving blocks. (But why one-and-one-half days after the last block went down??)

I’m sitting here with my cup of coffee–counting my blessings–and want to wish my readers a very happy, healthy Memorial Day Monday.
