The Fourth

Today is the middle of the Fourth of July weekend. Since the Fourth falls on Sunday, Monday is an official holiday. The government does not want to shortchange the poor workers so it was declared that if a holiday falls on Sunday the next day is also a holiday.

When I still worked I used to love these long weekends. Now it doesn't make any difference. My life is nothing but a long weekend. That is what's called the ultimate retirement. Yesterday it was cool, in the 60s and raining the better part of the day. Today, Sunday it is dry so far but not summery hot. Typically, tomorrow, the last day of the weekend promises to be the best of them all. Tough luck for the working class.

We don't have any special plans for this event. Life goes on as usual. Abigail is in constant studying mode and the results are showing with very good grades. She is studying chemistry and calculus 1. 90% of what she is studying I have no clues about. Fortunately, she is not asking for any help because that would be very embarrassing (for me). We are very proud of her.
