Hello September. Okay, we can do this one of two ways: Either you’ll be nice and stay more on the cooler side or we can badmouth you the entire month if you aren’t. Your choice. Go on. Make up your mind please.

The un-official end of summer is here and we’re “celebrating” with the end of summer fruits and veggies. Celebrating means Mom always has to work through Labor Day weekend. But she’s celebrating with 8 hours of overtime. At home, and since someone whose name may start with the letter Q put bite marks on the peaches making them unappealing for photos, Dad thought he’d get Tessa in on the veggie celebration. As it turns out, she’s not a corn fan. Bet if we slathered these ears with butter she’d be all over those like . . . melted butter on corn!

Generally, we’re not big fans of September but knowing we’re closer to cooler, wetter weather than not, helps us get through the month. Are you a September lover?

08/29/2025 – Breakfast with Viola

If Mom had moved 3 more inches over, you’d see that not only am I having breakfast with Dad, I’m draping myself over his arms which says this is my Dad and no one else’s. I’m going to let Mom slide on her terrible photo quality. But Dad says if Mom had moved over anymore, she’d get his face in the photo and he’s not terribly enthused about that happening. Doesn’t change that fact that I’ve claimed him mine, despite his gentle insistence that he needs an arm to drink his breakfast tea. Dad, your tea’s going nowhere. You’ll have all day to spend with your arms. Let’s just sit like this for a while longer, okay?
