Tax/Doctor Day, Oh My!

Posted on Monday, March 16, 2026 by Paul

We were up and running early because we were heading in completely different directions.  Mary was off to see the tax accountant (because nothing says “fun morning” like paperwork and panic), and I was taking Bob Z. to the hospital … Continue reading →

Posted on Friday, March 6, 2026 by Paul

It was supposed to be a gardening day, but Mother Nature showed up with 30 mph winds and a bad attitude.  Between the dirt trying to exfoliate our faces and Mary’s contact lenses threatening to turn into potato chips, we … Continue reading →

Another Busy Day Going Here And There!

Posted on Friday, February 20, 2026 by Paul

Today’s agenda: Maximum relaxation—with one tiny plot twist.  I’ve got a 2:00 pm doctor appointment (because nothing says “self-care” like medical paperwork).  It’s dinner with Robin at a local Mexican restaurant… exact location TBD based on vibes, hunger level, and … Continue reading →

The Weatherman Missed… Again!

Posted on Wednesday, February 18, 2026 by Paul

It is Wednesday, and that normally means we are off to the gym, but today, Mary went alone to face the onslaught from the personal training staff.  I stayed home to work with Jeff’s kids so the plumbers could get … Continue reading →

Mid-Week, Nada!

Posted on Wednesday, February 11, 2026 by Paul

We were up and moving early because I had a blood test scheduled at 10:00 am and a carotid artery ultrasound at 11:00 am.  Even though I practiced for the blood test, it is always an experience. We drove about … 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 →

Down And Out!

Posted on Wednesday, January 28, 2026 by Paul

Even after resting yesterday after watercolor class, Mary’s back was still on the fritz. In slang, “fritz” almost always appears in the phrase “on the fritz,” meaning something is broken, not working correctly, malfunctioning, or out of order, like a … Continue reading →

Another Exciting Day In The Adventures Of Mary & Paul

Posted on Friday, January 23, 2026 by Paul

It’s 1:30 am, and Mary’s back pain has grown to the point that she cannot move and is crying.  I told her we were going to the ER, and she immediately agreed.   Waiting for 911 was out of the question, … Continue reading →

Off And Running!!

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 →
