A Painting We Will Go! A Painting We Will Go!

Posted on Tuesday, March 10, 2026 by Paul

We were up before 7:00 am, with Mary already in full mission mode—fixing breakfast and getting herself ready for her trip to watercolor class (because apparently, sleep is optional when art is involved). Meanwhile, I spent a couple of hours … Continue reading →

Oh No!!! It’s Gym Day!

Posted on Wednesday, February 25, 2026 by Paul

Experts informed us that a glass of wine can reduce the perceived pain inflicted by our personal trainers. This morning we tested the theory… but accidentally substituted “glass” with “bottle.” Result: the workout was completely painless. In fact, we don’t … 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 →

Get Out The Paint!

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 →

Posted on Tuesday, January 20, 2026 by Paul

This morning was full of amazing events!  Mary beat me up—though I guess it’s more accurate to say she was out of bed before I was.  I could have sworn she made it look like an Olympic sport!  I woke … Continue reading →

Mary Got A Bike!!!

Posted on Sunday, December 21, 2025 by Paul

I asked Mary to share one of her Christmas memories: I lived in a small town called Medford, Oregon, with a population of 15,000.  As you know, I was born into a low-middle-income family, and my foster parents tried to … Continue reading →

Posted on Tuesday, December 16, 2025 by Paul

As I grew older and was given more responsibilities, I learned to love the incinerator, especially at Christmas.  Feeding this beast with Christmas boxes and wrapping paper was fun, but the real thrill was cutting off branches from a “dead” … Continue reading →

We Are Off Like A Shot! The Day Is Full!

Posted on Saturday, December 6, 2025 by Paul

I had to work hard for my first bicycle!  I am probably ten years old, so this would be 1954, and I wanted a red two-wheeler.  Well, Dad got me a fantastic bike that I used for years and years.  … Continue reading →
