May Day…

And a happy May Day is wished for everyone. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Day

I remember May Day fondly from when my children were small.  I received many a bouquet of dandelions or violets held in grubby little hands and presented to me with much love.  As my kids grew older and in school the flowers were presented in tiny little paper cones that the teacher had helped them fashion in school.  To this day it  delights me to see a cluster of violets that have popped  up out of nowhere.

They are such a beautiful little flower, one of my favorites,

It is another dreary day.  It is supposed to get up into the mid 70s today and even 8os for the rest of the week.  I have so many things I need or want to do and I just don’t have the energy to do them.  I am also a bit depressed waiting for the results of all of my tests and the biopsies.

I think I will see when my daughter wants to go with me to look for a TV.

Have a good day.  You all stay safe and be happy!!

  8. We never made a big deal out of May day here probably because you never knew what you were going to get for the weather. It's still cool after the cool snap that started the last week of April and here were are with it still cool...better but cool. My heart goes out to waiting on those results my friend. I will say another prayer for you. I hope you find the perfect tv!

  11. A happy May Day to you Beth! Flat screen tv's have come down in price. I bought mine in 2007 for $800.00. I saw the same Sony about two months ago for about $450.00.

  13. The weather guessers are calling for "muggy" weather the rest of the week. I sure hope their usual accuracy holds true because I'm not ready to fire up the A/C yet!
