Boat Launch!
We launched my boat on April 9th which seemed very early, but Mom looked it up in her journal and says that last year we put it in on April 10th. We didn't go on the boat much last year, though, and things are going to be different this year. I tried looking up in my journal last year to see what I was doing instead of going on the boat, and besides that my handwriting has become fairly indecipherable even to me, I think I did lots of yard work. Yes, the yard work is never-ending, but on the other hand going out on the boat is the best. Maybe I'll remember that this year. The view of our...

Happy Spring!
Even though it's suddenly chilly out there that's OK because things are green and soon it'll be warm. The other day when it was a little warmer but not too warm I did yoga out in the fenced yard...
March…
...and we're already into April. How do I never have time to just sit at my laptop, typing in stuff? I must make more time for this. I don't know how. Eventually, maybe, I'll figure it out....
More in February as March wraps up…

Happy Birthday Mom!
Mom is 88 today, and she's doing phenomenally. We have no warm weather trips this year, but we did get up to Chicago in January to see Randy Rainbow, https://www.randyrainbow.com, a very funny...
January Cats
January - well, it's over. We had some bitterly bitter cold and I ended up in the ER for a record-breaking third time. It was because of the high heart rate with Afib again, but then I got to see a...
Bitter cold plus other stuff
First of all - the Sunday before Xmas Mom came down with a "cold." She came to our house the Thurs. evening before Xmas and coughed a whole lot. On the 23rd, Kevin was suddenly sick with her "cold."...
Wrapping up 2023
Here's a lamp I bought at the Union Square Christmas market. The seller claimed it's made in Indonesia, and hopefully that's true and it wasn't made by Chines slave laborer children. Kevin took this...
Ending our trip with a Bang
After racing through the Met I wanted to walk through Central Park for a bit. I knew Mom wouldn't be up for much of it but at least we got to walk for a while. Many festive horse and carriages were...
