Yesterday, when noodling over my lack of journal comments, I honestly thought - man you retire and instantly you become a non-person.  I've always written this journal for me.  I've loved and appreciated each and every comment but they are not why I write here.  So when the comments dried up, I was curious but did not for a minute assume or even think they might be there and I wasn't seeing them.  I did think that being retired is going to get a little lonely without them but, hey, price you pay...

Gmail!  How could you??!!  Why would you??!!! What in the world did I do to cause you to turn on me like that?  Sigh. I'm on to you now.  So be cool.

Anita is here an working away.  She's going to be coming only once a month now for a while until I can get a grasp on my retirement rhythm.  I might start cooking again. I doubt it, but I might.  Or I might find that my own cooking so sucks that I absolutely need her 2 times a month.  Either way, I am going to take some time to find out.

I'm going back to the outdoor pool again today.  It's cloudy again and even cooler which might mean it's less crowded.  Oh and also the class today is a shallow end class.  Diane said that some people come to the class and hang in the deep end and do their exercises there.  That's what I'm going to do.  The shallow end work bangs my knees.  Plus too much of your body is out in the cold air.  We'll give it a go today and see.  Also I want to see if I can get there and home without wrong turns.  I've got about 20 minutes til time to leave.

QUIET you fool! She'll hear us! We don't want some RETIRED lady thinking we're READING HER JOURNAL or anything!

(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Hey, I'm picking up pointers! Please don't stop! I'll comment!

Speaking of new jobs, I'm becoming a hospice nurse as of August 20th. No worries, I'm not going to talk about the job or become Debbie Downer. I hope the "Curbed" job works out. I think you'd be great at it.

Oh, I hope so too! I don't find hospice depressing but I know some people can't handle it. Some of the most inspiring experiences I had in the intensive care unit were with our ALS patients during the last stages of illness. That's one of the reasons I wanted to try hospice.

I comment on many of your posts, so if you don't see something from me, there is definitely something wrong:)
