I really did plan to have another post up sooner than this. Seems that I am easily distracted these days. Well, OK. I have always been easily distracted. It is just more noticable these days!
I love retirement. Nobody tells me what to do or when to do it. So the better part of the day I spent going through a box of family paperwork. Found all sorts of interesting stuff. Old Christmas letters from cousins. Letters written by relatives to my parents. My Dad's Selective Service papers from WWII. My parents marriage license from 1945. Got out my file folders and now I should be able to lay hands on the paperwork I want to see.
The small suburb where I live is about 25 miles from Minneapolis. Frankly, I am surprised that the crazy hasn't hit here yet. I suppose the protestors are still busy in the cities. Fine with me.
I really am tired of all the hoopla surrounding the deportation of illegals. Other places can manage this without all of the insane behavior. I have to admit to ignoring much of the so-called news stories concerning Minneapolis. It has really become tiresome - at least to me.
These days I am much more interested in my adult kids, grand kids and great grands. All are doing well and I am really proud of them all. Although I now have a daughter who retired. And my youngest can now, according to his daughter, eat off the 55+ menu at the local restaurant. All that is sort of scary. :)
I have no idea what tomorrow will bring and that is just fine. After so many years of 9 to 5 and later of working nights, and especially because I really am an ornery old bat, I find this quiet life wonderful!
I pray that your world, my friends, is peaceful. And is what you want in life.
God bless. Vicki
