My almost 85 yo dad asked me for recommendation of a podcast to.listen to while he uses the exercise bike at his assisted living facility. Any suggestions? Probably start with something with shorter episodes [15 min]. #podcast #seniorliving

I ordered AAA maps & visitor guides today. You know what that means! Time to start sketching our next trip! The only state I need to visit to have been to all 50 is Vermont. DH needs Maine, NJ, and Delaware, too. Help us plan what we should see/do in these states! Drop us a note in comments.

It was fascinating to watch the #astronauts return to Earth today. I hope no one tries to take credit for the dolphin welcoming committee. Wasn't that so cool?!

I've had flu-like symptoms since Thurs (neg for flu at dr ofc & home test). This is the 1st day to wake up w/o a fever, but my energy is wrecked. Pacing myself to not overdo it... put in a load of towels to wash; 45 minutes to tuck back in bed! Thankful for #retirement so I can just rest whenever.

Thankful for good neighbors who willingly offered to help with the tedious parts of clearing out the leftovers from my parents' house after downsizing. We couldn't have done it without them.

Even though I am retired, I still get excited when the office gets an unplanned day off! #snowdays in Florida are too rare to not enjoy!

Why is it when I have unpacked and put everything away, it feels like I've not even been on vacation?

Cleaned out part of garage today. Blessed 2 families w/stuff that was just taking up space: camping gear to a family with 11 yo triplets, crafting supplies to a neighbor family we've become acquainted with when they take their daily walk by our house. And we have a bit more space and organization!

Wicked was wonderful. Seeing it with my 27 y.o. son was even better.

While I was helping my parents transition to assisted living, BlueSky became a thing. Thanks to @hestradarodz.bsky.social for mentioning it!
