Seven Years Ago Today

Seven years ago today the world as we knew it changed. Four planes all Hijacked from three different places (4). Two Planes crashed into the Twin Towers in NYC killing everyone aboard and those in the buildings and causing the twin towers to collapse and one plane into the Pentagon in Washington DC and one in PA that was headed to DC.

All over the country there were memorials held. At ground zero names of the victims and those who helped were read off by family members and those who represented our allies. There were speeches made and bells rung for each victim. Here in Connecticut there were memorials services and candle light vigils.

I tried watching some of it but I couldn’t. I had things I needed to do and I wanted to get them done. Well they are not done but I also did some apple picking with Dave today. I brought home a good amount and Mom will use them for baking.

When I got home I finished getting my cell phone set up. I had some trouble with it so I had to go to the store. It is working okay so far. I still need to read the manual to make sure I understand it.

The retirement dinner was a huge success. The food was served late but it was still delicious. Many union representatives were there and Laura Smith made a presentation. Irma was very surprised. The party started breaking up after 8 pm. I was home by nine.


Since I have been home I took a bath and did some laundry. Now I am going to bed. I am getting tired and my wrist is hurting on and off.
