Expecting rain the next two days. Looking like I will retire end of Nov. So I’m working towards that. My wife has surgery on both hands tomorrow so I am taking a week off, maybe two while she recovers. Lots of time to work out the retirement.

House in TN closes on Friday maybe.

I remember the fight and the arrest. I wonder if Rutgers will make a mistake or not on this. 250K is something pretty big.

My wife and I spent the weekend on the northern Oregon coast. We stayed in Seaside but that is very close to Cannon Beach. So we spent time in both. It was just a quick vacation…[Read more]

Shoveled another yard of dirt on Saturday and mowed a neighbor’s way overgrown lawn. I think it was overwhelming for him to look at so I took care of it. Hot tubbed with my wife that night and we both felt much better.

Just thinking about it makes me tired and sore. We are in for a stretch of dry for the next 10 days so we’ll be getting more dirt and shoveling.

Next week I have to figure out my options for medical coverage from not medicare and then medicare. Once I understand those things, I…[Read more]

Very slippery when wet and also dry. Not recommended for older folks like me who have to get up there and clean it and I’m busy slipping all over the place. No golf shoes on that!! They are more like lean toos. Fully open to the elements but has a roof. It stays pretty dry in there and we…[Read more]
