The week has really been slipping past, as well as the month! It is hard to believe that it is the 10th already. Sean's birthday is just 5 days away - he'll be 15! How did he get to be so old already? It just seems like last week that he was playing on the front porch with a telephone and a hammer. Practicing his demolition skills.
Fall is slipping up on us - occasionally there is the nip in the air, then again summer is still trying to make a stand. 85-degree days are not the thing that Fall days are made of. I'm sure that by the end of the month we'll all be wishing for a few of these warmer days.
I remember that the Celtic Festival last year was frigid and by the next week when the Oyster Festival came around it was cold and rainy. I'm hoping for much better weather this year.

Thought For the Day: Maturity is achieved when a person postpones immediate pleasures for long-term values. — Joshua Liebman
The woman applying for a job in a Florida lemon grove seemed way too qualified for the job.
"Look Miss," said the foreman, "do you have any experience in picking lemons?"
"Well... as a matter if fact, Yes!" she replied. "I've been divorced three times."
Doctor Bloom who was known for miraculous cures for arthritis had a waiting room full of people when a little old lady, completely bent over in half, shuffled in slowly, leaning on her cane. When her turn came, she went into the doctor's office, and, amazingly, emerged within half an hour walking completely erect with her head held high.
A woman in the waiting room who had seen all this walked up to the little old lady and said, "It's a miracle! You walked in bent in half and now you're walking erect. What did that doctor do?"
She answered, "Miracle, shmiricle. He gave me a longer cane."
