Fresh Quotation:

 

Today’s Reflection:

Another windy day. Oh well.

I got gas at Sams yesterday…regular was $4.55/gallon. This doesn’t look like winning to me.

The Broncos play the Chiefs tonight. I must have been dreaming about my recent post that the Broncos had won. Go Broncos.

The AZ Card beat the Chargers in a good game last night.

I attended a funeral this morning for a Tuba Boarding retired teacher. I was Angie’s supervisor for many years. It was a nice service. She had been on a ventilator for a while and passed at 76. She had a loving husband and 4 good adult children. She will be missed by many.
