Thanks.

Hello everyone. Sandy sounds like you are not slowing down. What is the Downton Abbey exhibit? Lin, yes sorry bout you being under the weather…hope its only a 24 hr bug and you are feeling much better by the time you read this. Jackie, I will go to Google Earth as soon as I finish this post. Sorry for the weather there.…

Lin, love your library tales. I only read on my IPad. Have not read a regular book in ages. The best part of this is the library. If I am awake at midnight I can go visit the shelves of the library and choose a book and it is in my hands….I mean Ipad….instantly. I sometimes browse the books for hours, day or night! Joy

Hi all you sneakers. I tried to post and lost the message. Then no time to retry. Wish that didnt happen on this site. There must be a bug fix. Never happens on other web sites. We are doing errands and getting ready for the holidays. My granddaughter started a website for Secret Santa gifts. That way our large family draw…

Sorry for your cold wet weather, Jackie. We complain but of course its pretty mild in California, and we know we are lucky. Doing chores indoors this week….and probably on weekend too. Of course there is no weekend for us retired folks😍 My grandson got a job finally. So we are grateful for that. All the granddaughters…

A Wednesday hello to all. I Like the pics of the bath tub set up thx for posting it Jackie. Lin, I am in the mood for soup, so far I only made chicken noodle and lentil. Just did pantry inventory this morning and have some beef broth I need to use up. I am making minestrone with it. I like to make enough for lunch and one…

Luv your teapot Lin Quiet Trick or Treat evening. Joy

Thanks Sandy. I appreciate the info. Glad you got your arrangements for your ashes. You really help your loved ones when you make the arrangements. I am going to get on it! Joy

Good Monday to all my Sneaker friends. Yesterday was a wonderful visit with my grandson. He left about 10 pm for the drive to San Diego….driving at night makes the traffic light. Los Angeles is impossible to get thru in the day. Sandy, I am always thinking about my funeral arrangements. But my problem is the Gemini in me…

Its Thursday! Just got home. Deb and I shopped several stores to get some extra steps. We are on the lookout for Christmas gift ideas. Yikes, I said the word. Yep, not even Halloween. We needed to stop at Dollar store for cards. Then I was tired. Back still hurts from when I broke myT6 over a year ago. I was thirsty. I was…

Good Morning to all. Went to Panera for breakfast today. Ate a bearclaw and MFP sugar and fat is thru the roof already. OMG. Wish I selected a bagel. But I wanted pumpkin and they didnt have it. I will have to try somewhere else. Got our Walmart Grocery pickup. Have to cook some ground meat for tacos, and do some slicing…

Jackie, my deepest condolences on the loss of your brother. Joy

Happy Monday. I made it to the doctors appointments last week and this week should be light. I am doing laundry, changing sheets, etc. this morning. Played Wordle and NYT crossword. Took short walk. New plan this week…plan to take four or five shorter walks. My old knees just cannot walk very long. In fact, I dont know how…

Hello Tuesday. Just stopping in to say hello. Monday was the Medicare Wellness Exam and that includes the long questionnaire. I passed the memory test but only because it was so short and easy. My real life short memory is not too good. Today we had a new sleeper bed delivered, ready for our end of the year company.…

Lin, sorry I missed your Birthday. Hope it was happy. My grandson just went home. We had a great visit. Tomorrow I have an appointment for my covid vax LuvJoy

Happy Saturday to all. So glad to hear from all of you and read your posts. My granddaughter went home and had another job interview. She got an offer she accepted. Now we got a call from my youngest grandson, just college grad and also interviewing for jobs. Since he has nothing on the books, he s driving down to visit us…

Hello to all….have been busy days. The sun setting early now and we feel the change of seasons. Had a nice surprise when my granddaughter called and said she will come down today and stay two days. Jackie is from Georgia and it is so lovely that she moved to California and we can now visit at the drop of a hat. She has…

Sandy, adorable pic. My great granddaughter is Keilani! She is now 4. The grow so quickly. Joy

Hi to all. Well its been a busy week. Med appoints and such. Good report from the heart doctor, tho. One for the gratitude journal. I forgot where Sandy went, but the view is stunning. My neighbor died suddenly although Randy suffered from COPD and was on oxygen. We will go to the services next week. I usually get Walmart…

Hi to all my Pals….Well the summer visitors are all gone now and we approach September with lots of med appointments. Since Deb and Lo are approaching 70 and I am starting to near 90….we are getting to the point of having labs and tests to check us out. Add Charlie, my son in law, and its lots of days with at least one…

Lin. We are always forgetting about the trash. But we must be on the end of the route, as they come in the afternoon. So we have plenty of time to get to the kerb! Joy

Lin. Oh my gosh…..all that non fiction readingI. Start with notes and summaries??! Joy

Jackie, I luv furniture shopping. Your shopping trip sounds like so much fun. Barbie, i have been thinking about audio books. It could help me stay on my treadmill longer. I always thought they would put me to sleep. I think I will have to try one. I am one also who reads more than one book at a time. I never get them…

Jackie, I actually believe MFP could recode this community site. Sorry you lost your post. Barbie, luv the old laundry joke Joy

Hello all. Going to see a very old friend today…..we met in 1975! Day trip. Washed, dried and folded all of our laundry, Lin! I usually leave the folding to later….great procrastinator. Sandy, yes, all the woes of getting there are replaced with happiness once there. We have been very hot here. Anne, luv your menus.…

Hi lin…cute teapot

Anne, how delightful your adventures in the senior home are. Its so nice to see how much you have adapted and are enjoying this chapter in your life. Well, since we just got back from Sacramento, loads of laundry to work on today. Joy

Hello all you Sneakers. We are finally home. I have just read a couple of pages of your posts. Wow, you are all such a busy group. Our trip driving up past Sacramento was a nightmare. There is alot of road construction and the traffic slowdown was horrendous. Finally made it safely, and of course, thats all that counts.…

Sandy, so sorry about your priest. So young, too. But a peaceful way to go. Good luck to all at the college drop off.
