It is with a weary and heavy heart that we begin the month of June. Usually a time of celebration and jubilance, there is nothing but sadness, doubt and worry based on what our country has become. I wish I had something more uplifting and inspirational to say. I wish I could find something that would inspire those feelings in me, but I’m at a loss. While the world burns around us, I turn more insular, relying on Andy to be strong, to keep us going, and somehow he does. Turning off the television and the computer, I take lots of walks in our small yard, examining each plant and tree, breathing in the sweet scent of the Korean lilacs and squatting down to get a close-up glimpse of the tree peony about to burst forth in bloom if the critters don’t eat her head first. In 2020, anything is possible, no matter how heartbreaking or upsetting. On with the recap…
It was a joke just a week ago, but how prophetic this comparison turned out to be.
I’m now old enough to remember a more innocent time. Most of us are.
My virgin brush with a virgin.
A flash mob with a purpose, and you know how they make me cry.
Whispers from loved ones in the perfume of a flower.
Floral memories are the sweetest.
A gratuitous glimpse of Julian Morris because some gents deserve more than one glance.
Remembering a lost mate from childhood.
I hope we can one day dance again.
Mourning what has become of America.
Hunks of the Day included Dr. Andrew Neighbors, Jim Cooney, Rick Fox, Maxi Iglesias, and Giovanni Pernice.
