We decided to take the bikes to Red Rock and ride somewhere that 1) we don’t know anyone; and 2) flat surface…hahaha that’s a joke!  We started DOWN the bike trail and I stopped to ask him if he thought it went ALL the way DOWN…realizing that there was no way I could come all… Read more

I realize 1 year, 11 months and 14 days isn’t tomorrow and sounds pretty far in the future to document plans on a calendar..but it will be a very important day for me…the beginning of retirement.  I skipped over my anniversary date without a thought but it hit me this morning.  Now, I’m hoping that… Read more

I have many positive things to say about friendships introduced and nurtured on the internet.  He and I spent the day with @Tracy yesterday.  I had mentioned to “him” that when we all got together in Chicago last month that we are just like “real” “normal” people together.  The fact that we only occasionally see… Read more

Visited Trader Joes for the first time yesterday.  I liked it, although I must admit my eyes didn’t glaze over like they would if it had been, say, a shoe store or antique store or Hobby Lobby.  I’m just not in the buying food place in my life anymore.  He does all of the cooking… Read more

So I called Winstream last known as Iowa Telecom to drop my service….They at least have one service rep that understands good service and knows what he is getting paid for.  He saved a customer…seriously.  I also asked him to flag the call so his supervisor could hear how he handled the call – he… Read more

That popped into my head this morning…it was empowering.    I think I wasted too many years being the person that things happened to and I didn’t think I had control to make changes. WOW.  The latest hate drama in my life is not a really big deal – say in 10 years…who will remember…who will… Read more

I pay $77.34 a month for a telephone and high speed internet…actually 1.5mb internet because that is the fastest I can get out here in the country in Central Iowa.  My internet provider/phone company does offer me call waiting, caller ID and something else I’ve never used for this $77.34 fee…I cancelled long distance on… Read more
