Good morning. We are off to take care of some medical issues. It is sunny and beautiful here, although below normal in temperatures. It is nice to see green grass again.
I seem to have trouble posting on the right thread these days. Haste makes waste.
Morning! Sunshine and no new snow overnight. Temps will head up towards 50 today…60’s tomorrow! Then next week freezing and snow again!
What is the significance of May Day? Husband and I were discussing this over coffee this morning recalling the May Pole in elementary school with no explanation of why? I have a dear friend who loves May 1st handing our May baskets…
From Wikipedia: May Day is a European festival of ancient origins marking the beginning of summer, usually celebrated on May 1, around halfway between the Northern Hemisphere’s spring equinox and midsummer solstice.
And this from duck-duck-go AI: Mayday is an internationally recognized distress signal used primarily by aviators and mariners to indicate a life-threatening emergency. It is derived from the French phrase “m’aider,” meaning “help me,” and was officially adopted in 1927.
MAY DAY! MAY DAY!
No, I’m not in distress, but it’s the First of May. And it’s Friday.

Limited on commenting by the WP gurus.
We are supposed to have a cold weekend, again. In sync with others.
Continuing in a maze of difficulties here. Always, prayers appreciated.
Praying for you, NJ, about your daughter. It is heartbreaking and so unnecessary to cut ties completely.
I seem to be in a state of feast or famine. When food is brought in I must eat it all (not having a refrigerator). A form of intermittent fasting 🙂

Met some new folks from my church. Now Clara is outside doing weed eating along my hillside.
My PNG friends left this morning. Such a delight to have them
