Yikes! I was the fourth one from dropping onto page two. So I am furiously trying to think of something to blog about. Good thing there isn't a counter on how many times I've almost disappeared onto page two.......

OK, my impressions I've had lately. It is wierd and hard to express but lately the apartment gives me the feeling of being on vacation. You know when the restrictive schedule is gone, one can do what they want, a feeling of difference. I especially notice this impression around 5 a.m. when it is cool, the sun is out but not to hot and humid yet, and the critters are out and about. I also realized how lucky I am to live here, my own little slice of heaven, my own little vacation.

Makes me ask what am I vacationing from? Responsibility? My old life? Reality??? Or maybe I am firmly sinking into the whole retirement routine? I know that today, until 3 when Alex comes over after school, I have nothing I have to do. Actually I didn't make the bed cause I have plans of climbing back in and taking a nap. I'm free to do what I want, just like on vacation. I think this staying busy to keep the boredom at bay is catching up to me, I'm tired.

I'm also taking a break from pondering on the right way to act, the proper thing to say. It is getting old always doing and saying the right thing for the right reasons. I think I will just keep to myself today. It is safer for everyone else that way.
