I had most of the day on my own Wednesday, since Angie had to work. She gave me directions to a good place to walk so that was the plan. It was pretty wet, but not raining when I woke up, so I headed out after breakfast. Of course, it started to rain within a… Continue reading A Walk in the Rain

Spring Flowers
This will be my last spring in this home – so I will be getting as many pictures as possible to show them off. I will be pretty busy the next few weeks with packing and getting ready to move, but hopefully I’ll continue to get pictures. I have planted many of these bushes, trees… Continue reading Spring Flowers
A Wild Ride (but short)
This isn’t really a ride – but my first house for sale story. I told you earlier that I had found an apartment for Chester and I to move to and that the next step was selling the house. With the help of a friend, I found and hired a realtor (Josh). Well, I guess… Continue reading A Wild Ride (but short)
Little Bit of This – Little Bit of That
There is seldom much going on around here in the dead of winter and January is about as dead as it can get. 🙂 We’ve had snow (not too much so far this year) and we’ve had cold & windy days. Today has been a lovely break in the cold with a current temperature of… Continue reading Little Bit of This – Little Bit of That
Progress

After years of convincing people that I am perfect, it is hard to admit that I made a mistake and that I failed at something. If you remember, I retired in the spring this year. That is what I failed. One of the employees at the Y suggested that I should be looking to see… Continue reading I Failed
Things
Things are not moving as smoothly lately as they have been, but I am sure everything will be on track again soon. The main problem is my job, which unfortunately I need to survive. One of my supervisors decided to remove me from one of my clients without any particular reason, except that he could. … Continue reading Things
Another Combo
I’m gong to have to go back to working full-time. This retirement thing is getting to be too much work! It has been ages since I’ve had a chance to work on my de-cluttering, but I got some more done in the kitchen this morning. 🙂 Actually, the kitchen is finished now. Every cupboard and… Continue reading Another Combo
Happenings
Actually – not much is happening around here. My car is in for service for a couple of recalls and some regular maintenance. Hopefully it will be ready soon and I can get out and run some errands. I still don’t seem to have this retirement going the way I expected it to be. I… Continue reading Happenings
A Work Story
I’ve been working at this new job for just about 2 months now. I have some regular clients where I spend 2 to 3 hours from once to three times per week. Two of the clients live in different 4 story buildings – one on the 2nd floor and one on the 4th floor. This… Continue reading A Work Story
