Fact: There’s no apostrophe in Veterans Day.\u00a0 <\/strong>The lack of an apostrophe in “Veterans Day” implies that the occasion doesn’t belong to veterans.\u00a0 Rather, it’s a day that honors all soldiers who once served their country, both dead and alive.<\/em><\/p>\n

I am happily married to a veteran.\u00a0 Captain Mary A. C\u00f4t\u00e9, MD.\u00a0 I am so very happy she is on our side!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We were up early and heard the “crack” of dawn.\u00a0 Why?\u00a0 Who knows? We are just early birds.\u00a0 Ah ha, maybe that’s why we go outside in the morning and attempt to catch the worms?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We walked out to the South 40 and walked the fences to make sure all was well.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Early morning visit to the garden.<\/p><\/div>\n

We had a noon appointment with my doctor in Los Alamitos, so we decided to “Go To The Club” for breakfast.\u00a0 The meal was fine, and we got to see Miss Charlotte, who was making the turn.<\/p>\n

After breakfast, we went to H&H Nursery and went shopping for goodies.\u00a0 Mary and I filled the cart with new veggies to plant this afternoon!!<\/p>\n

\"\"

Shopping we will go!<\/p><\/div>\n

I got to pick out some veggies also!<\/p>\n

\"\"

A little of this and a little of that!<\/p><\/div>\n

After arriving home, with a slight pause at Jan’s house to bring her sleeping socks, We loaded our new treasures into Daddy’s cart and went to work in the backyard; we planted the veggies, watered them, and then finished off the job with straw mulch.\u00a0 \u00a0We are finding some of the worms have moved quite a bit from their original location; this is good.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Very soon, we will be loaded with goodies!<\/p><\/div>\n

Our two carts (two-wheeled wheelbarrows) are just right for the garden.\u00a0 \u00a0We are constantly watching out for weeds.\u00a0 A weed is a plant that has mastered every survival skill except for learning how to grow in rows.<\/p>\n

We will perfect our vegetable garden beds through a process of trowel and error!<\/p>\n

\"\"

We bring our carts to the garden!<\/p><\/div>\n

We worked until it was getting dark.\u00a0 Mary went inside to make dinner, and I finished cleaning up and bringing in the tools.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Farmer Paul is ready for dinner as the sun sets in the west.<\/p><\/div>\n

We had a delightful dinner and watched a movie on the roll-around TV.\u00a0 We finally crashed at about 8:00 PM after talking to Robin and arranging fSunday’sy’s putting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
