April Showers
2.5 inches of showers from the late March snow thaw and the April rain should get this area out of the drought situation. That is the talk of the town.
This morning I turned myself in to our dentist here in town for impressions to be taken and made for the final product. It may take a total of a month before all is done and all is fitting well.
Dennis had a call from a fellow that we would see once a month when the Korean Veterans would meet at the VFW in Mankato. That chapter has been retired. George called to ask if we could get together with a few of the fellows and their wives tomorrow, so as to not loose all touch. I think that is a great idea. The VFW serves a daily noon lunch. We can enjoy a lunch together and catch up with one another.
This afternoon, I was stitching at the same time glancing at and reading my latest book. My eyelids got very heavy and I knew I had to get up and move about.
My birthday on Sunday told me I am truly at 80 years. I also have been retired for fifteen years. I retired two months short of my 65th birthday, so I am rounding it up. My status of being a retiree plus a fulltime housewife is going to shift a bit. I have had a talk with Dennis. I remember when a status had changed within a household. If I remember correctly there was one household task assigned each day when the other went to work. Dennis said he would have no problem with that as he often has not taken note that there might be something he could do and take that task from me. We will see how this turns out. As I am typing this, there is a process going on that will result in a clean kitchen floor. Yup.
The monetary portion of my life has never been the end all to be all. I have often shared that what I deserve in life is a clean secure home. Yup.
With that I take my leave. ♥
