another morning
Summer is on it's way out. I had that surgery back in the spring, and thought that by now I'd be running around, feeling good. That's not the way it's turned out so far. I'm trying today to get a better attitude about all this. I think it would probably help in a lot of ways. So, I'm working on that.
My folks were here for a long weekend and we had a lot of fun. Played a lot of cards, too. Does anyone know how to play the game Whist? For some reason I'd like to learn how to play it.
Speaking of learning--I took a hunter's education class over the last couple of weeks. There was a lot of information. And I learned quite a bit. I'd put money on me being the only vegan in the class. Probably ever. I hadn't taken an official test for some time, but there it was--like high school or something--a fifty question test. The class covered a lot more than what was included on the test, and all in all, I'm happy I took the class.
Jen has started teaching another semester. That really makes it feel like summer is soon to be a memory. The mornings have a distinct autumn chill that makes me think of flannels.

I do know how to play whist. It was the first partnered card game I learned when I was in grade school. It is a very fun game! My family usually plays pinochle when we get together but every once and a while we will throw down some whist.
So why did you take the hunter's education class? Just for the information? I used to hunt with my dad when I was younger. He didn't have a boy so I was kind of it. I used to love going until the day when my dad shot a partridge and it wasn't dead when I retrieved it. He told me I would have to ring its neck to keep it from suffering. Needless to say that was my last hunting outing ever. Anywho glad to see your post hope your recovery starts improving! Talk to you soon!

Whist - like beirwoman I used to play when I was shorter. Now I'd stick to Pinochle or Smear.
I was also thinking you'd be the first vegan to take a hunting class. You gonna actually go hunting or just wanted to do something?
I hope you have a swift recovery.
