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.

Happy Mother’s Day, Obituary and Dinner Out.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

Click on the pictures to enlarge.

It was barely 10:30 last night when Kathy headed off to Bed, but for the second time in as many nights, I was delayed. Afterwards, I spent less than Ninety Minutes in the Recliner before finishing the night in Bed.

We both seemed to get up at the same time this morning, but while Kathy got washed up, I started getting things ready for breakfast. Even with our Coffees at our Computers, Kathy seemed tired. It wasn’t long before the kids started calling with Mother’s Day Wishes.

Though it was signed, I waited for Kathy to be getting dressed before placing her Card on her Computer. I did not want her to see how I had walked in the door, while holding her hand and the Card at the same time.

For lunch I mixed a Prepackaged Coleslaw with Cherry Tomatoes and Olives to step things up a notch. It was an improvement but once these are done, I think I will go back to Homemade. Before going back at the Computers, I gave Kathy an Epson Salts Foot Bath, Pedicure and Leg Massage.

Kathy later brought up the Obituary Notice for her mother and wondered why nobody called to tell her. (Kathy’s mother died nearly Twenty Years ago and we went to the wake.) She also denied that we were in LaSalle again yesterday and that the person we saw was not Danny, because her brother’s hair used to be Red when he was younger. He is only Twenty-Five Days younger than I am and like me, he does not dye his hair.

Even though the kids suggested going for a walk to help her legs Kathy kept saying that her Knee was too sore to go. What better way to heal a joint, but by exercising it. There was only one thing that I could do to remedy the situation and that was to say we were going out for supper. Noticing that she was twisting her leg as she walked, I tried suggesting what some of my former Physiotherapist had told me. That was a near fatal mistake, but I walked away with my head still attached.

Our destination was the Michigan Diner closest to our home. Arriving at exactly 4:00 was perfect as some well-fed customers were leaving just on time to be replaced by those wanting some nourishment. We barely sat down when the waitress came to bring us Menus that I dismissed and simply gave our orders. With a smile on her face, she said “You’ve been here before”.

After getting our refreshments we had Ten Minutes before our food arrived. That was when Kathy told me that she has been staring at the ceiling a lot the last few nights and was having a hard time staying awake at the table. That could explain some of the weird things she has been doing but not all. As we sat there, we figured she would be having a ZzzQuil capsule so she can sleep tonight. Our meal was delicious as always.

We later watched a couple Mystery Movies before calling it a night.

After getting ready for Bed, she was getting a box of Tissue from our Storage Room when she asked what the Recycle was doing in there. Not knowing what she was talking about, when I checked I found a large sized Trash Bag inside. Like many other things, she didn’t do that. Just like a child’s denial.

We would like to say Thank You for the well wishes and hope everyone had an Enjoyable Mother’s Day.
