Happy Easter To Everyone!

Posted on Sunday, April 20, 2025 by Paul

It’s Easter morning, and for the first time in forty years, I’m not panicked about getting ready for guests or heading to brunch.  The family is getting older, and they must establish their traditions.  Years ago, we had a tradition … Continue reading →

The Weekend Has Started Out Beautifully!!!

Posted on Saturday, April 19, 2025 by Paul

We were so lazy today that we didn’t roll out of bed until a respectable 8:00 am—what can I say, we’re not early risers, we’re “efficient snoozers!” The sky was clearer than my morning brain, with absolutely no clouds—probably because … Continue reading →

The Week Has Gone; Friday Has Arrived!

Posted on Friday, April 18, 2025 by Paul

Last night was Scout’s night to roar.  He went to bed by himself at 9:00 pm, so I thought this would be easy.  At 11 pm, 1 am, 3 am, and 3:15 am, I was alerted to his needs and … Continue reading →

Thursday Has Come On Stage; We Shall Celebrate!

Posted on Thursday, April 17, 2025 by Paul

We woke up at 7:00 am and headed to Huntington Beach to visit Mary’s former office partner, who is an optician. Mary thought her glasses needed some adjustments. However, after the check-up, there was very little change, so she didn’t … Continue reading →

Wednesday is the day that screams, “Time to squeeze into that gym outfit!” I can barely contain my excitement at the thought of being poked, twisted, and laughed at by the Peak Performance staff—it’s like a workout and a comedy … Continue reading →

Tuesday And Spring Has Gone Away; Winter Is Back! Tax Day!

Posted on Tuesday, April 15, 2025 by Paul

Today, the calendar is as clear as my brain before I’ve had coffee, except for Mary’s painting class! We got off to a slow start; I think we moved slower than paint drying on a rainy day! I officially hate … Continue reading →

Oh My, A New Week Begins!

Posted on Monday, April 14, 2025 by Paul

I did the math; this morning begins the 4,191st week since I came into this world. Mary is a piker; it has been only 3,803 weeks since May 26, 1952. I plan to celebrate my 5,000th week with my bride … Continue reading →

A “Normal” Sunday!

Posted on Sunday, April 13, 2025 by Paul

Robin crashed at our place last night, likely plotting her strategy for conquering the Spring Boutique at the Elks Lodge. I suspect she was scheming to outshop everyone while wearing her lucky shopping socks!  She was undoubtedly welcome since I … Continue reading →

Hell Of A Way To Start The Day!

Posted on Sunday, April 13, 2025 by Paul

The day was going to be pretty, with temperatures in the mid-70s and a small breeze. But when I arose, I was having a difficult time breathing, and it was difficult to walk. Mary got up a little bit after … Continue reading →

Friday Has Arrived And We Are Ready!

Posted on Friday, April 11, 2025 by Paul

I was reminded that today was gym day, so I searched the closet for my iron suit. I must exercise in the morning before my brain figures out what I’m doing. I then gave my exercise and workout activities some … Continue reading →
