We are muddling along, thanks, although during the Bush years, I most sincerely wanted you to take us back.
Today I will grill something and try to scare up someone to take the kid to see fireworks. They're triggering (of PTSD) to poor Papa, so we usually never go. Perhaps I'll take her myself.
Absolutely I am! Thank you. Today we are lazing around watching old movies, eating junk food, and going to have Cheeseburgers and potato chips with baked beans for dinner and then over to some friends house to watch the fireworks at the fairgrounds after dark.
I'm even pleased because I got a good price for gerald thurston lamp on ebay last night and it is missing the shade.
We woke up early, had breakfast cooked by the firefighters, saw a Life Flight helicopter land and got to sit in in, saw a parade, ate lots of candy, had barbecue chicken cooked by the church and mom's potato salad, are now lazing about Mom and Dad's house, I'm burnt to a crisp from watching the parade in no shade (even though I slathered SPF 50 sunscreen) and are now awaiting dusk so we can put on a little fireworks show in Grandma and Grandpa's driveway.
Been a good Fourth so far - thanks for thinking of us!

It was so worth the 15 minutes clean up that's to now follow....

Whatever you are doing - have a great day.
