I feel like my cough is dissipating a bit, but still has a ways to go. It’s not quite as threatening or as intense as it was, but a few times a day I still feel shook by it. My doctor says sometimes it can hang on for a month or two!

After I got cleared to have my medical test tomorrow, I came home and had breakfast. I made a batch of pancakes. Ate 2 and froze the rest. I thought that would be better than buying frozen ones.

Next, I went to my dentist appointment. I figured the way things had been going this summer I’d have issues but everything was perfect! Amazing! I got a cleaning and a fluoride treatment and a new tube of fluoride (sensitive) toothpaste. I didn’t have to go to work today. I did see that Joe posted on facebook that all the cars are gone now at the Greensburg location and the lot is empty. It sort of makes me a little emotional — I’ll miss going there, and miss working with Joe. He’ll be in the Jeannette store occasionally but not like it was. Good luck, Joe! I know ‘semi-retirement’ will be perfect and you’ll be supper happy!

I wanted to pull out a picture of Grama Crooks’ house – I did find one but I thought there would be more. I’ll keep looking through Mom’s old photos, too. Then I sorted out my garden flags as I told Kathy I’d share some with her.

Diane sent me a photo from her hike today – It’s Jewel Weed, and the stems help dry up poison ivy. Good to know!

It was a beautiful day outside so I took half an hour and cleaned up a small section of the hill. Still a lot to do but there’s a lot of fall left to do it in!

I took a shower (as I always do after being in the yard) and now it’s time to finish up the day. Hope to read a few more stories – I did several last night.

My blessing today was comfortable reports at my appointments.

TOMORROW September 11th is:

National Hot Cross Bun Day; National Make Your Bed Day; No News is Good News Day; Patriot Day; National Cricket Day.

There was no fake day yesterday. Tomorrow – as EVERY day – I will make my bed. And I’m sure everyone will stop to remember where they were when the Twin Towers went down. As well as Shanksville. God bless us, every one…
