What I Posted Last Week Here at Readerbuzz:








I began to list 3 Good Things every day during the pandemic. Now I've established a regular routine of writing down my 3 Good Things. Here are 3 Good Things from last week:



Good Thing #1:

Hurricane Beryl hit the Texas Gulf Coast 
where I live with 80+ mph winds, 
but our roof stayed on
and our house did not blow down. 



Good Thing #2:

This pecan tree branch,
the thickness of a thigh,
did not go through our roof,
but instead bored down a foot and a half into the ground.



Good Thing #3:

We were able to gather up the tree limbs
for removal by our town soon. 
We had no trees fall during the storm.
We had no other real damage.
