Connie's Corner

A couple things of note

I went to a birthday party this morning for the great grandson who turned three, Gunner. He was so cute running around with three fingers up and then counting gift packages. Kids are such little adults, aren't they? It was nice to see people I hadn't seen for a while, chat and catch up on their lives. I took the Interstate, thirteen minutes on to off. Yes, I count the minutes, so much traffic, but it is the quickest and probably the safest way to go.

Yesterday morning, after being informed by text by my neighbor because I slept through the entire thing, a huge limb on a gigantic water oak cracked and fell across the street, literally, decapitating my mailbox as it hit the macadam with a deafening thud (according to my neighbor). Public works had sawed and cleaned up everything by the time I heard about it and looked outside. But now, I have a mailbox to re-attach.
