Happy Father's Day...Happy Summer!

I'll let Daddy Bluebird wish all the fathers a Happy Father's Day and everyone a Happy First Day of Summer. And, boy, did summer enter on a HOT note here TN. Again, Weather Bug says that it got to 98 deg. F.

Since we celebrated Father's Day yesterday with our children and grandchildren, today has been rather quiet. We went to Sunday School. Woody taught his 8th grade boys and I was the substitute teacher for my ladies' class. We came home and ate lunch. Then Woody rested and I sewed. Woody is having quite a bit of pain in his shoulder...enough that he decided to take some pain medication which helped him to rest this afternoon and somewhat dulled the pain.

It was even more quiet than usual around here as the TV wasn't on very much as we rarely get a signal these days. Woody called the FCC number and they said that we should be able to get stations in Huntsville, but probably not in Nashville. They are sending us something to fill out telling of our problems with the digital change-over. They also suggested that we call stations in Nashville and ask them when they will be sending out a stronger signal. All I can say is: "so much for progress!" Think how many years we have been able to get a signal with an antenna and then they up and change things and in this day and age we can no longer get a good signal. We're probably better off without TV anyway...except during bad weather when it would be good to be kept informed...but it really is a diversion for Woody...so I hate that it is so finicky at the moment. Maybe on down the road?
