Not the same

     This picture was July 4th, 38 days ago.  This morning the same picture would be 52!!  As I did some things outside this morning I had a light jacket on and it felt good.  Did I say the only constant is change??
     The day will go fast.  Aaron/Amy should stop by for a short time this morning and then I will travel to Shakopee to visit Terry.     Terry called about 6:30 and she had a fairly good night.  I think today she gets something called not clear liquid but _____ liquid which means she will have a bit of food for the first time in about 3 days. 
     Don't know if there will be any work done or not today.  I am not worried but do want to get those windows painted by next weekend.  There is a lot of hurry  up and wait for primer and paint to dry and of course the painting itself is mostly delicate work as one paints around the glass.  For the painter there is nothing like a good brush.
     I am in one of those "twilight" moods this morning.  I am sitting in the south upstairs room, sun room, and I can see the tops of the trees turning bright with the sun.  For some reason I have had family on my mind this morning.  Well for sure Terry is on my mind the most as she begins her several days recovery but family just kind of spins around and around in the brain.  I think of ALL the changes in the last few years and it is almost hard to believe.  New homes, new babies, new marriage and more.  I was thinking of the time I asked John/Mary if they would like me to make a crib--seems not too long ago.  Now Henry is almost 9 and he seems so mature.  I think of the times one would wonder what it would be like to have grandchildren and now there is Henry, Liam, Leo, Faustina, Audrey, Jude, Ruby and Ben.  I think of Terry's grandchildren and the oldest one went off to college yesterday, it just seems like life is not fair because time goes so fast.  Anyway I had better not get into more things but---as I blogged about my grandpa/grandma Helen and Dave said it brought to the fore front many memories and they had a great conversation.  Well that is wonderful but after my thoughts this morning and memories on the blog I think I need to look to the NOW and the future for a while. 
    I will get out into the garage in a bit.  I want to do some small things this morning before A/A come.  I am about finished with my FP coffee and I have savored a BLT with tomatoes out of the garden so I should be good to go for the morning. 
      No got to go (GTG) now.
     Aaron turns 39 tomorrow.  Each time one of the kids has a birthday I think of all of them, John, Travis, Aaron and Cynthia and realize how blessed and lucky a guy I am to have such wonderful kids.
