That calendar gets worn out for something that just otherwise hangs in the kitchen. So much chickenscratch in certain places as I have many a place to go.

But can you believe what time of year it really is? September. We just had Labor Day. And in about a week or so, we'll have the fall solstice. Already this writer is looking ahead to spring, even though it's not really cold yet. Hey, at my age, I'm just glad to even see a sunrise on any given...
