It's about time.

Many of you can relate to Working long hours at your career. Raising your families. Buying a home and paying all the bills related to being homeowners and parents. We're now retired and don't need all that work and expense. Now "It's about time" and what we do to follow our dreams.

Errands, Shopping and Eating Out.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

When you write a Blog on a daily basis, you never think twice about it, it just becomes a routine. Throw in a Surgical Procedure and it really becomes a challenge, especially when it is on your Dominate Hand that is affected. Then you have to train yourself to write using the Index Finger from your Non-Dominate Hand. When other things suddenly appear, they tend to take preference over those routines.

As I mentioned last week even my sleep routine has been challenging, varying dramatically from one night to another. I seem to rest better in Bed than in my Recliner, but over the last week, I barely spent much time there at all. Last Night was a breakthrough when I had only Two Hours in my chair before sleeping the rest of the night in Bed.

We’ve been making an effort at getting out once a day, running simple errands, grocery shopping or just have one fast-food meal out. Today was a combination of all Three.

First, we stopped at Wendy’s to take advantage of their Canadian Special for lunch. Luckily, we were sitting down eating when the clock struck noon, because within minutes the place was packed.

Some Canadian Medical Treatments still require Cash, which we seldom carry since Covid, so we stopped at the Credit Union to correct that shortcoming.

I’ve mentioned before that Kathy has been an avid reader her entire life. Her mother would often catch her reading under the blankets with a flashlight, long after bedtime on school nights. During our early RVing Days we met Fulltime RVers Nick and Terry Russell at a Gypsy Journal RV Rally. At the time Nick had considered becoming a Writer, but even though Terry tried encouraging him to follow his dream, it was Kathy’s urging that led to his new career. Today we stopped at Guardian Storage to pick up our 53rd Published Book by author Nick Russell.

As we were passing the Pioneer gas station, the Car made an abrupt turn when it spotted gasoline prices that were over Fifteen Cents per Litre less than its last fill up.

We finally stopped at the Zehr’s grocery store. Some of our food stocks were starting to thin out, so we tried to fix that. Unfortunately, I was not going to pay $6.50 for a head of Lettuce, the size of a Grapefruit. What we walked out with, is not on everyone’s healthy eating list.

Since the New Management Company has taken over our building, our Heat is controlled from their Head Office in Toronto, over Two Hundred Miles away. As soon as we walked into our Apartment, we started sweating. That left us no other option but to open our Balcony Door and Bedroom Window.

I heard from Melissa that if I was Diabetic, my extended insurance would cover my Medical Treatment, but since I’m not, I will have to pay for it out of pocket.

After supper, Karen called to see how we are doing.

Tomorrow will be another busy day.
