Memorial Lesson Learned

Whatever you do this Memorial day, don't wish an old veteran Happy Memorial Day. The response you get from these men of service is, "So you wish I had died." I think it has to do a bit with survivors guilt. Its funny how people take things now, ay? Its became a tradition to wish someone a Happy Memorials Day and you assume they'll be ready with a cheery reply. Anyway this Memorial Day we set up a tent in our front yard, cleaned out the barn-It looks smashing by the way( I am using Canadian terminology:)-and listened to fireworks the night before.  I was wedged between Ess and Abe on the rocky tarp of the tent bottom. It was super uncomfortable, and Karol kept barking at the fireworks. It was an awful first night and I certainly didn't act very christian. Ah well. Try better next time. Ia m so happy there is a Tomorrow, for without a Tomorrow we would be 'guilted' out of our minds. Happy Memorial Day! Take a moment to honor our fallen soldiers who fought for US. 🇺🇸
