Take time to double check your work, Carol!

Good morning to all!  I hope you are having or about to have, a marvelous Friday!
In reviewing my previous posts, I see a couple of things that need correction or at least acknowledgement.  My first post had a typo - "couldnt'" instead of "couldn't" - oops! ! ! and my second describing my family, mentioned a May birthday for Elijah and his birthday is in October!  I can remember teachers reminding me to "double check your work" when I was in grammar school.  Guess I'd better go back to those days, huh?

I spoke yesterday of the Life Review process a group of us at Common Ground are undertaking.  It amazes me that, after I think I am finished writing for the day, that my memory bank keeps on working.  All day long yesterday I found fresh memories arising, things that didn't come to mind the first time and, thank goodness for computers, I can go back and add in information and perhaps delete some as well.  I can remember, in the "olden days", how I used a typewriter eraser and in some cases, simply pulled the paper out and rolled in a new sheet and just started all over.  And when there were carbon copies required, what a chore that was!  Well, going back into my history is not entirely what I intended to do when I opened up this blog this morning.

Since I retired, Fridays don't carry the same weight that they used to.  And yet there are aspects of the last day of the working week that hang on.  I still look forward to the weekends as though they are so different from the rest of the days and when Monday rolls around, I frequently refer to it as the first day of the week.  Old habits of thought certainly have a way of sticking around, don't they? 

Words are not coming to me as easily this morning so I am going to close now and simply say "Thanks for it all!!!"
