Hello, all. I have been lounging and playing my game on my tablet, and now it's time to get started. I'd like to have a phone visit with db, check on the status of attendance on our dinner out group, text a former colleague, then mostly doing stuff around the apartment.

Thank you for starting us off, Kittykatt. I'm glad that you have realized how your body is reacting to the heat, and adjusting your routines to accommodate.

CostumeLady, I think that this is what modern retirement looks like. The change from 5 days per week to part time, or casual work, or artisan work, focussing on what interests you if possible.

The concert tonight sounds fun, helian. That was cool to hear about the different Twix bar flavours.

Hi, Peaches


Bama, my db prefers to drive at night too, for the same reason. When he used to drive from northeastern Quebec to Ontario, he used to do the 2-day trip in one night by driving for 17 hours and missing all of the rush hours. I used to stop off in Quebec City for the night and make it a two-day trip, complete with sitting in rush hour traffic, when I would visit him. I'm so happy that he has moved to Quebec City so that I only have to do half the trip to see him now.
I can imagine that your dd2 was not thrilled to be woken up so early after her late night. Now that she's up, I hope that she is enjoying her time with you both.

Gma, stay safe! I hope that you make it up and down that ladder safely.

Hi, L.Ann. I hope that dgs is enjoying his time with you. Movie sounds fun.
