Middle of May...40º

Nothing like rain to make everything green and growing...Our yard is mostly green now, as the early daffies are done blooming and the late ones are not as showy...The little Japanese Maple tree has leafed out and makes a bright spot at our front door...Lilacs will soon bring blooms and fragrance our way...Spring is a time of rejuvenation and growth.

Speaking of that, our small town/county has been given the go ahead to do a slow opening, hoping that we have flattened the curve on Covid-19, and can now start anew...We have been closed down for 2 months and all spring, summer and fall events have been canceled...Ours is a tourist town and its lively hood depends on summer events...2020 will go down in the history books as a devastating year for small businesses.

On a lighter note, Herb and I had acupuncture appointments yesterday, Jamie and her staff, have kept a positive attitude, giving care to patients in a safe and loving environment...They are true professionals and are looking ahead to getting back to a more normal practice.

Grocery shopping was next on our list, and gets easier each time we do it, lending credence to the saying, "Old dogs can learn new tricks."....Hugs To All...OWAV:)
