Posted on Saturday, February 21, 2026 by Paul

We slept in late this morning, not getting vertical until AFTER 8:00 am!  Oh my!   I fixed coffee, and when Mary came into the breakfast room, I heard the coffee mumble to itself! We piddled around the house most of … Continue reading →

Today will be wet, at least from 10:00 am until 6:00 pm.  That is excellent news since we are going to Girls Night Out at the Elks, and then to a doctor’s appointment, and then to Cerritos Center for the … Continue reading →

More Rain And a Lot Of Fun!

Posted on Tuesday, February 17, 2026 by Paul

The morning was wet, and the rain gauge proved it, showing we got 1 5/8 inches of rain yesterday!  In addition, it was colder than a well-digger’s butt (a favorite saying of my Dad).  We turned up the heat and … Continue reading →

Time For “Girls Night Out!”

Posted on Thursday, February 12, 2026 by Paul

We have no idea what happened, but we didn’t get up until almost 8:15 am.  Apparently, “lounging around reading and watching TV” is an extreme sport—and we absolutely crushed it. We enjoyed our morning coffee with Colleen, who demonstrated the … Continue reading →

It’s That Day!!

Posted on Thursday, February 5, 2026 by Paul

I planned to sneak Mary away for a rendezvous at the Elks at noon, although she said she prefers I use the front door!  So we had our coffee instead, and then we traveled in The Silver Fox to the … Continue reading →

Windy Is As Windy Does!

Posted on Wednesday, February 4, 2026 by Paul

Midweek activities began early today.  The wind last night was horrible, but it had some benefits: the house stayed “warm,” and I did NOT freeze when I got up at 6:30 am.   The wind chimes were going all night long, … Continue reading →

Posted on Tuesday, February 3, 2026 by Paul

This morning, I woke up quietly and tried to be sneaky so Mary could keep sleeping.  I tiptoed out of the bedroom around 6:30 am and turned off the heat.  Instead, I went to the TV room, grabbed a fuzzy … Continue reading →

Mary slept past 8:00 am this morning, and let me tell you, that’s like Bigfoot getting caught on camera—it just never happens!  But after all the meds she took to relieve the pain, we totally understand why.  I mean, with … Continue reading →

The Only Thing That Changes Is The Weather!

Posted on Thursday, January 22, 2026 by Paul

Last week it was so hot that I considered applying SPF 1000 just to step outside. This week, it’s like Mother Nature’s gone bipolar—highs in the 60s and rain! At this rate, my wardrobe is just going to be a … Continue reading →
