I may have been solo but I had a nice time. The 5K was cheered on by neighbors and me on our street until 9 a.m. Then I walked downtown to enjoy the parade and its a good one. I danced to Happy in the plaza before it started. I came home and finally ate a meal, lots of good salads on my porch. Then it was time to swim. I found the entire HOA pool deserted and swam 15 minutes before two families came, then swam another 15 minutes. Weather was mild only reaching 80* when I checked. I read the Declaration of Independence in about 15 minutes. I was able to video chat with my children and their families over the course of the afternoon. I was so happy. First was Paul with his date at the park venue. Then catching my daughter and her family returning from vacation so I also called later once they were home. And finally reaching my son and his family talking to their boys one at a time. I was about to leave for music at the high school when I found A Capitol Fourth was live on my ipad. So I watched that, but it had lots of pauses. I then talked to Kathy. I was invited to watch fireworks next door but was solo there as Mary got the virus from her mother and they stayed inside. I saw fireworks for an hour! I ended up seeing PBS News Hour and the beginning of a Grit movie before turning in. I didn't see my two ferals all day but they were both ready for breakfast this morning. Today is grandmother Olive's birthday. It was celebrated on the 4th and that wrong date is on her headstone. Her husband's is incorrect too. Our bbq was last used in 2009 by my husband with his daughter over to celebrate. I'm fine with delish salads and don't need the meat.
