Joyful Return

So, my wife and I just flew home from California “and boy are our arms…” Oh, never mind. Our arms aren’t tired, but we are. One cramped and N95-bemasked red-eye flight later, I’m scratchy-throaty and achy-breaky all over, but apparently just run-down (our COVID tests came out negative). More info and pics soon. Meanwhile, our beloved queen-sized bed awaits!

      I have to admit, I never use the C word with regard to weddings. Years ago, when I was a child, I’m not sure if Irish or French superstition but remember getting a lecture for saying it to the bride to be. It was considered bad luck…so I don’t ever use it with regard to a wedding. Haven’t ever since. I was a quick study as a kid. Was told to send best wishes, never the “C” word with regard to weddings. It stuck 😉

    Welcome back, Mitch! My best wishes to the newlyweds for a long, happy, healthy hitch! My hopes that the follow-up medical tests confirm the best of health, too, for one and all.

    Welcome back, Mitch. Oh, btw, that above “Anonymous” is aka CommonSenseTom. Looks like I should’ve taken that newly added level of security a tad more seriously, eh?

    The giving away of your daughter and receiving a new son-in-law can be exhausting stuff. So happy for you. Many blessings and much rest to you, my friend.

    Congratulations for you and your family! Weddings are beautiful but probably one of the most tiring processes on Earth! Take care and try to recuperate. We’re glad you’re home.
