Flo Loves My New Tiger Socks

by Jon Katz

The minute Flo saw my new tiger socks, she came right over to rub her chin against my shoes. Flo is a little tiger herself, it’s a natural match.

It is a gorgeous day at Bedlam Farm, an exciting day. I am guilty to think of our farm on a day when there is so much anger and hurt and ugliness in the country.

The first crews arrived today to dig the foundation for our solar panels, which are coming on June 10. When the Pandemic struck, we thought of canceling the solar plan.

We decided to be hopeful and move ahead, and we don’t regret it. The idea is to keep grounded, hopeful, and forward-looking. I’m mindful of all the pain around me, but I won’t let it consume my life.

My socks get me smiling in the morning, and my new blue glasses are on the way. Color on top, color on the bottom, the same dull guy in the middle.

  1. Sharp, quick, funny, deep, empathetic, sensitive… nothing dull at all !
    Your socks make me smile, too.

  2. My favorite socks so far. I think they’re the cat’s meow … sorry, couldn’t resist! I disagree with your middle being dull. We’ve seen you with red suspenders and I always thought they added a bit of pizazz. ?
