What I think

 who does not like fall? It is dark later and earlier, gray and wet most days. The pretty leaves fall and became a slippery mess on side walks. There is not much to like about this season.

 Driving in the car Sunday morning I heard the song Sunday Morning Coming Down by Johnny Cash. And I started to remember Sunday. When we could sleep in later and listen to the music whichever parent got to the stereo first played. Went to church. And a big mid day dinner with family. Very few things were open and it was always quiet.  What happened to that? I miss it. I am just not sure how to get Sunday back.

 Has come and gone. And while I received many birthday wishes I am always reminded of the ones I no longer get. And this year another card did not come in the mail. I am always a little sad on birthdays and grateful that I have been able to have another one.

 There is a commercial for Instacart that shows a mom playing with her kids because she is having her groceries delivered. In the not too distant past, moms were able to work, keep house, raise decent kids and grocery shop with no problem at all. Are we now saying moms of today are incapable of doing the things moms in the past could do? Is this just another way to make society weak and whiny? If you have a health reason use instacart other wise do you own shopping and take your kids with you and teach them how to shop and read labels and pay for things. Unless you are also incapable of raising decent kids, in that case, leave the darlings at home. The rest of the shoppers will thank you.
