School started back today for us. The hurricane may have littered our yards and sadly taken a few trees, but we fared good, compared to our neighbors, on the coast.

Did you ride a bike as a child? Have you ridden as an adult? I've done both and was dismayed to see an article about fewer children riding bicycles.

A lot can happen in a short time. The last few days bears witness to that. Since, I rarely watch the news, the fact that a hurricane was coming came as quite a shock to me.

I have been in an official routine since Monday . . . and I have lived to tell about it! I could not even sleep on Sunday night, for I was convinced I would never make it to work on time and doubted I would survive a four hour meeting, right off the bat.

It was a tempest in a teapot-or a tempest over a tweet. A J.P. Morgan #MondayMotivation tweet took the form of an imaginary conversation between a customer and their bank account and was deemed offensive.

I arrived at the rabbitpatch, last night. I had been away a full week and so Christian and the boxer made quite a production over my return.

It finally rained -and that changed everything. After weeks of blistering heat that wilted flowers and spirits, a cool wind blew and then the rain fell.

I always feel as though I'm taking my life in my hands when we drive to downtown Atlanta during rush hour, and I'm thankful it's not something I do often. My husband had a follow-up doctor's visit at Emory Midtown one morning, and the first bit of good news was we made it down there without mishap.

It rained last night. Evening showers came and "settled the dust", revived the countryside and cooled the air.

The fourth of July passed here, without much fanfare. Christian had to work, and besides that, our family was gathering the next day, as that was when we could all do so.

I woke on Sunday to a fair morning. The air was cool and the sky was bright. What a pleasant surprise June has been. The hateful, southern humidity has been reduced enough to make the month mock the time of early spring.

I rose early on "Fathers' Day". It was the first day, I had been at the rabbitpatch, since school had adjourned.

I hope School Administrators are afraid of their Shadows and Political Correctness. If they believe in what they are doing, it's even worse than I fear it’s worse.

You don't have to go back very far in our past to come to a time when a lot more of us believed that our Colleges and Universities sought out and embraced truth a lot more than they do today.

The last few days have flown by like a "whirlwind". When "the dust settled", children had graduated and a closing ceremony concluded the school year.

The days of late spring, continue to come and go in the most delightful fashion. It is a bit warmer, now, but in the absence of humidity, it is a pleasant thing to be outside.

Memorial Day is set aside to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country, but it's also a day when I'm reminded to think about those service members who are still with us.

The Sunday, that we call Mothers' Day, began with a light rain. I slept a bit later, because of that. Few things are as pleasant, as waking to rain, and no place to have to go.

Yesterday, was a big day! Yesterday was full of celebrating, food, family and surprises and commotion. I, who shy away from parties given for me, wouldn't trade yesterdays' party, for "all the kings' horses"!
