Life is Good

Just had another great swim and exercise session. The spa hot tub was closed for repairs and that was a disappointment. I hope it won’t be closed for long. Changing weather affects arthritis adversely.

After running a few errands this morning, I came back and started going through my index of memoir stories to see which are… click here to continue

Just Another Haircut

I plop myself down in the barber chair I’ve occupied about once a month for the last four years. My lady barber is obviously not herself. I discerned that while I was waiting to get in the chair. She was finishing a haircut when I came in. So I sat and waited. While I was waiting, another of her… click here to continue

Catch 22, King City Style

Well, I had a housekeeper all lined up until she realized that we live in the city limits of King City and she doesn’t have a KC business license.

We had a quiet evening reading and watching TV.… click here to continue

Under the Weather

I’m a little under the weather tonight, but what great weather to be under. I think we will get out in it tomorrow and enjoy the last lingering rays of sun. After about nine or ten hours sleep last night and a long nap this afternoon, another good night’s rest should help a lot.

Unpacking and Packing Stuff from Room to Room

We did a lot of unpacking, sorting and putting things away today. It was tough to spend a beautiful day inside, but we persevered. I think only one item will have to go in the attic. I’ve misplaced the list of what’s up there already, so it won’t hurt to get a peek.
