Living alone takes a bit of an adjustment. And it’s probably different than what you expect. Contrary to being lonely, it’s the abundance of freedom that is the adjustment. There is no one here to be concerned about, to take care of, but also no one to share with. The girls are on a twelve [...]
Not every day of retirement is full of sun colored daffodils. Take today for instance. I slept late which I rarely do. Since I dropped Robin off at the airport yesterday to begin a ten day vacation, there was no one to adjust my sleep tactics. Taking care of personal business, I pushed the button [...]
I’m going to give this one last shot, for two reasons. I had to go to the vet today. It seems as if I have some kind of rash that I picked up while trekking below the 36th parallel this winter. So it seems I’m back on the steroids for a few weeks until this [...]

The oil and filter needed changed, the generator the same. The separator needed checked for any water that needed removed from the diesel [...]
A blip on the radar of our lives today. I mentioned earlier that Robin has been having wheezing and deep coughs ever since last March.
