Since many of us are self quarantined with the Stay at Home Order, it is an opportune time to review the lessons we learned (or not 
) in 4th grade 
:
The Proper Use of See, Saw, and Seen
Present Tense: see --
(the action is happening NOW in the present)
Past Tense: saw -- (the action is over)
Everyday I see my neighbor, and everyday he sees me. “I see something lying on the road up ahead.”
Yesterday I saw my neighbor mowing his lawn. Last year, I saw the Super Bowl in person.
Past Participle: seen --
(used with have, has, is, was, will be, had been, etc.)
In the past, I have seen two rainbows in the sky at once.
Before we had seen ten minutes of the movie, the projector broke.
In this film, Tom Hanks is seen as a mad scientist who invents a formula for invisibility
.
Never ever say or write “I seen.”
Say, “I HAVE seen” or “I HAD seen.”
Remember: The word seen must never follow directly after the words I, he, she, we, they, Bob, Mary (any person’s name).

When all this is over let me know when you come this way again. Could seen you at Mueller's BBQ in Taylor or come on over to Round Rock for some cheap whiskey.
