Mid-Week And We Are Busy Again! Or Is It Still??

Posted on Wednesday, April 29, 2026 by Paul

It’s Wednesday, which means we must go to the workout and be torn to itty-bitty bits by the personal trainers.  We arrived at 8:30 am, a half hour early, and began today’s torture on the stationary bikes.  I was whizzing … Continue reading →

Posted on Saturday, April 25, 2026 by Paul

It’s 8:00 am on Saturday, we’re up, caffeinated, and pretending we’re the kind of people who get a lot done before noon.  So far, the garden is scheduled to eat most of the day, and then we’ll reward ourselves by … Continue reading →

Posted on Thursday, April 23, 2026 by Paul

Today was delightfully uneventful as we headed off to the Elks for Girls’ Night Out and met up with the regulars.  George, as always, ordered his signature dish: a hockey puck.  Honestly, we all need to develop this level of … Continue reading →

It’s Ouchday… We Started Peak Performance

Posted on Wednesday, April 22, 2026 by Paul

What is Ouchday, you ask?  It’s the day—or days—we head to the gym for a little thing called a “workout.” I prefer to call it a sweat session, muscle mayhem, cardio catastrophe, or a full-blown pain parade. Today, I drew … Continue reading →

We Are Off And Running!

Posted on Tuesday, April 21, 2026 by Paul

I was feeling pretty good this morning and strutted around the house, looking for things to add to my “to-do” list.  After 81 years, I am getting this “strutting” down to a science with my dark glasses, jeans jacket, and … Continue reading →
