Yesterday I completed the family circuit and hit my other grandparents’ home. <\/p>\n

I walked around outside in the woods, as I did as a child. I got eaten up by mosquitos, as I did as a child. I was not told to be careful of snakes, as I was as a child. But probably only because my grandmother wasn’t home just then to warn and worry. She was at a funeral and I was killing time playing in the woods. <\/p>\n

And then she came home and fussed at me, as she did when I was a child. And pretty much every day of my life she’s seen me. <\/p>\n

It is a wonderful thing to be fussed at.<\/p>\n

She’d had a big day so she had an early night last night. I played the Facebook where-are-they-now game. This is difficult to do in a place with limited cell phone service. It is even more challenging in a bedroom with only one electrical outlet, which is as far away from the bed as possible. These things didn’t matter much in the 60s, I guess, when the house was built. <\/p>\n

Also, the mattress might be that old, too. And while I’m not that old, I always feel like it after a night in the back room. <\/p>\n

But a lovely morning today. Huge breakfast. I washed dishes. More visiting and then this afternoon was timed to get on the road before the rain.<\/p>\n

So with more traveling and visiting, I’ll just point out the obvious: when eight of 11 words on a label are that important, you pour yourself a big serving. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
