ROUGH WEEK IN THE WORLD

There is always trouble in the world. It doesn't matter what year, month or day or time, trouble is lurking. Doesn't matter who you are either.




The world lost McMahon this week. I remember watching him for many years, some of those with a black and white TV set. Funny man. Good sidekick. Sorry he's gone.




Then we lost Farrah. Maybe not the finest actress ever, but you have to admit she was pretty and had great hair. And Golfer still has the cup with the copy of her famous poster on it up in the cupboard! I'm sorry she had to suffer for so long.




Then we lost Michael. The man had talent. Our daughters watched his music videos and listened to his music. There was even a "Michael Jackson Day" at Nurse J's Middle School! The students dressed up and played his music. I don't think they do things like that now. He shared his talent from a very early age. It is sad that his last years have been so very troubled. BeyB had a lot of questions about Michael; mainly why didn't he ever look the same. I answered her the best I could.



Add to these losses the other troubles and pains in the world and it's been a so-so week.



It's hot and humid and Summer is in full force here in Virginia. I've made it to the outdoor pool a couple times and enjoyed it.


Life goes on. Stay safe.
