Thursday, August 7, 2025 We met Brad and Regina on our cruise to the Amazon in February 2023. We enjoyed their company so much – it was the high point of the trip! We told them if they were ever in MN to let us know – and they did! They were in Indiana at
Wednesday, August 6, 2025 Today was our packing day. We leave for vacation Friday and have guests coming tomorrow. We needed to get it done! I wrote notes and stuck them on the computer so I wouldn’t just play Solitaire all day. It worked…most of the day. Alexander came for dinner, to help empty out

Tuesday, August 5, 2025 I had a spectacular pool day today. Christina and the boys came down from the north and we chatted and chatted and all swam and played basketball and floated and played with squirt guns. I loved getting blasted in the back of my head and William was glad to oblige. We

Monday, August 4, 2025 I never read this strategy in the simple living/downsizing articles on the internet. If you bump a glass and it slides right off of the counter and smashes on the ground, you can easily decide not to keep it anymore. We saw Naked Gun today. I laughed. Keith laughed. We earned

Wednesday, July 30, 2025 Every once in a while, we remember we are supposed to look inside the boxes all over the house instead of just ignoring them. I did a few today and Keith tackled the necklace dilemma. I had a great spot in my old closet that I hung little hooks for necklaces.
Tuesday, July 28, 2025 I looked at the pile of scrapbooks in the craftroom-to-be and immediately went to the computer to check Facebook Marketplace for a shelf. I have looked a couple of times and didn’t find anything appropriate. Today I did. I sent a message, guy wrote back, Keith texted Tom-with-truck, Tom said I’ll
