About Me

My photo
I am a retired English teacher and department head, the mother of three grand mother of four, and have been married to the same man for 53 years, two years after we met at college. I taught in both middle and high schools as I really love teens and in-betweens. I was also a certified Lamaze instructor, and for a short time a volunteer chaplain at Howard County General Hospital. I am a two-time cancer survivor, ovarian (2003), and breast (2019) I was born in South Philadelphia and grew up in the 'burbs with great parents, in a bilingual household. I love soft pretzels and cheesesteaks, the Phillies, the Eagles, the Orioles, and sometimes the Ravens. I love being Mom, Aunt Kathy, Nona Kathy (Kath), and Teacher. I spend a lot of time in my gardens in the spring and summer, and in the winter I plan what I'm going to plant. I also am an avid reader, cook, photographer, lover of languages, music, and four-footed furries.

We're Cool...

Many of those around us are still without power (with a small 'p') which they're now saying may not be restored until Friday -- and in this relentless heat.  We've seen caravans of out-of-State/region power trucks coming to help.  Bless them all!!

But my point?  We all still have Power with a capital 'P" as alluded to here:

Stay cool, Dear Friends.

Hi, Hope your power is back on. PEPCO says 90 percent of its customers will have their power back by Friday. I hope they can do better than that.

I agree with that statement. Blessings on those without power. May it soon be restored.

We're thinking about all of you on the mainland who are suffering through the heat, storm, fires and power outages. What a trying time this is.

I LOVE what you've posted today and firmly, totally believe it! I am so tired of people telling other people they are wrong for what they believe in.

Kay said...

I want to also add that I think you're wonderful!

Barb said...

You stay cool, too, Kathy. There you are having power outage and here we are having wildfires. Peace be with you and happy 4th!

I am glad you are maintaining your coolness. On a serious note, I am really distressed thinking of all those folks with no power. How terrible that must be.

Mage said...

You too stay cool. I've been worrying about all of you there.

I feel very sorry for all those without power, and living in intolerable heat, etc. Now, if we could ship over to you some of the excessive rain we've been having......

Why is weather never where its wanted???
