Interesting Days...

Monday and Tuesday, I did absolutely NOTHING. Guess it was my way of recuperating from the weekend. Still, I'm not used to just being a vegetable, so I always feel guilty. But you know what? I'm retired! If I don't want to do anything, I don't have to!

The weather, once again, has been absolutely lovely. I was overdressed today in sweats. I did clean up the kitchen, mowed the back yard, and did a few other things...but didn't tax myself. I do need to be exercising. Just need to find inspiration!

Now that the patio is somewhat cleaned off, it's been fun sitting out there and watching the sparrows and robins pick up nesting material. It won't be long until I'll be hearing the "feed me!" chirps of the fledgeling robins in the yard. I love it!

In a couple of weeks, Grandma Judy and I will trek up to Muncie for Grandparents' Day at the children's school; then there is the annual Dayton Hamvention. It also begins to look like I can buy Megan's 500 race tickets for the first time in a zillion years. Hope my sister can join me for the event! (Getting there and back is not for the faint hearted!)

Megan has already purchased plane tickets for her, me, and the children for her summer visitation with them. We had to get our heads together on that because Robin's birthday comes close to the end of that time, and we needed to determine if she wanted her party in Indiana or in California. Robin is a roller-skating officianado these days and wants her party to be a skating deal. We'll be working on that! Poor Ryan doesn't have as many choices because his birthday comes in November, which is totally weather-driven.

I will be attending a social event on Saturday evening with my Sunday School class. Once upon a time, I wouldn't be caught dead doing that because my life was so otherwise full that I couldn't even THINK of something like that...but...well...things have changed! I just have to keep checking my calendar because I missed an important event last week due to schedule miscommunication. It's hell to get old!
