susandennisToday, I think I'm going to head out in the car and do a bunch of little things that have been on my list for a while. Nothing on the list is a must do. I do need scotch before Christmas Eve. But the rest is a major 'when.ev.er'. Today, however, seems as good as day as any to check some off the list.

I'm conducting a trial. I'm going a week without using one of my inhalers. I suspect that it is causing me to cough a lot - kind of not what an inhaler should do. So far, I'm proving my point. 3 days in and a drastic reduction in coughing. hmmmmm Next week I'm going to try using it for several days and see if the cough comes back. I have an appointment with the cute doctor on Thursday so I want to be armed with info by then.

My little IBM pension should kick in next Monday. It's supposed to just drop automagically into my checking account. Then on January 1, I start drawing from my investments once a month and I'll be pretty officially financially independent. I'm not fond of the term 'retired'. Plus, I might want to go back to work at some point. If the right job fell into my lap, I'd probably take it. But financially independent sounds pretentious. Jobless is wrong. Unemployed sounds a little misleading.
I need an adjective.

Betty thinks she needs a mid-morning snack so I think I'll feed her again and then hit the road.
