WEEK 49
"We drove up the snowy, winding road towards the cozy A-frame cabin." The trees and their branches bend downward with an inch of pure white snow. As the wind lifts and twirls the snowflakes around, we watch nature's aerial ballet. Standing close to the road, a buck and doe freeze in a natural pose. Gossamer pink and blue clouds float above with the sun beginning to set behind us.

THE MARGARITA BALL
Fort Worth, Texas Outside, the white sun peaked through the dark gray clouds. The bird outdoor thermometer's dial pointed to 66 degrees Fahrenheit. From the sky, a steady drizzle hit the sidewalk with a da, da, da, da rhythm. It was Friday the last day of December 2021. In the mudroom, by the garage door, the calendar could be seen from several feet away. Written in bright red marker on top of the preprinted New Year’s Eve symbol, NO PLANS.

NO TURKEY, NO PIE
Murphy's law - if it can go wrong, it will. Over the years, there is a holiday when things tend to go wrong. The holiday is Thanksgiving, It amazes me too. As there is always something to be thankful for. However, when things do go wrong, the cause is almost always something that we have no control over.

THE AQUARIUM FIELD TRIP
Right on the dot of 10 A.M., the three school buses parked in front of the Dallas World Aquarium. Wiggling and giggling in their seats, the second graders eagerly waited to exit their bus. By 10:15 A.M., approximately forty-five students and three teachers formed a long line stretching and snaking the full length of the block in front of the building.

NOVEMBER 11th
If I close my eyes, a vision of my grandparent's home comes to mind with all the poppies growing out front along the fence. While contemplating, memories of my dad donating money in exchange for the paper poppies fill my mind. Even today, the exchange of a donation for poppies goes on across the country. The contributions assist disabled and hospitalized veterans.
