Our Last Full Day in Florida
Whew, finally nearing the story of of our Florida trip, and now it's already April...anyway, there were many things I wanted to do on this last day, but didn't have time for all of them. It was kind of cool but sunny on this January Tuesday morning. First, we drove out to the Myakka State Forest. . I had done a cursory search of it, but I didn't do such a great job - I was hoping to walk along a path by some water, but when we got there it was just a path surrounded by the scrub bushes that are so prevalent in Florida. It was funny to me that they called it a state forest. Mom and I started...

Wrapping up September, mostly cats plus a groundhog
Spot! Always so happy when I'm in the garage with him. Actually, every night I sit with the garage kitties for a while after Kevin goes to bed, and every single time Spot starts loudly meowing the...
More stuff from September…

Pretty near to Halloween…
Whew. End of October, that sure was quick. Last week I was cleared by my surgeon so I can lug 10-pound weights around, or any of our cats. Except Lemon Drop, who hates being picked up....
October
Spot, out for a regal walk at the end of August. I can't take him for a walk until I can lift over 10 lbs, because he's 17. Kevin did take him for one walk and I'm hoping that'll happen again soon....
Fall!
So...things are all right. I opened up my laptop again after a hiatus, so that's something. Plus I'm cancer-free! So that's something else. Almost three weeks of not doing much of anything. Kevin...
Happy Belated Anniversary to Us…plus other stuff
Issues, issues, issues, always and perpetually issues. The thing is that I have no business whatsoever sitting down right now. I wrote that a while ago. Can't say for sure when it was, but it was...
Happy Sunday and YAAAAY Tim!
Tim was going to set up my new computer and transfer the thousands of photos plus other stuff from old computer to new, and he assured me that it'd be an OK job and wouldn't take long...but then, it...
Not the greatest summer…
It hasn't been the worst summer, I supposed, but not so great. The good news is that I'm now covered by health insurance again, but it's a fairly rotten policy with an obscene deductible. Plus of...
More from way back in June, when I still had health insurance…
Yeah, I continue to count the days till I'm insured, and it's now THREE MORE DAYS including today. So hopefully things'll be OK. My new (Aetna) insurance through the Affordable Care Act is kind of...
