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.

Making Things Count.

Our Location today is Windsor, Ontario.

This is really getting to us. One night we sleep like rocks, then the next I’m up and down disturbing Kathy’s sleep. At least I spent Eight Hours in bed, even if I wasn’t sleeping. I think it was yesterday’s nap that messed me up.

The sky was full of Clouds when I opened the Balcony Blinds this morning. I turned the Computers on, then went to get things ready for breakfast. I was just about to walk out of the kitchen when Kathy was getting out of bed. We enjoyed having Cereal for breakfast again, with Coffee at the Computers. Within minutes we were being blinded when the Sun started finding holes in the Clouds. It made it 54 F (12 C) today but tomorrow will be a very wet day.

We took our time reading for a bit, but then I had to start moving things around. I had to get the Gym Bag down so that I would go through its contents this afternoon.

Lunch was the last of the Take Home, that we brought with us from our Family Christmas Celebration on Thursday. Keeping it simple, we made Brisket Sandwiches along with warmed up Potato/Cheddar Casserole, before sharing the last Four Sugar Cookies for dessert.

We immediately did the Dishes though they could have waited until later. By doing them after lunch ensures that my Hands are very clean to do the Pill Doucettes with. Kathy says the Dishes are too hot to handle, but I know they are as clean as my Hands.

The Pharmaceutical Companies are making it hard for people like me that does our own Doucettes. Most Pills, Capsules and Tablets are dispensed in Vials or Bottles. Now they are sealing them on Perforated Sheets as well. That caused a problem when it came to the ones that need to be cut in Half. Luckily, because I do Six Weeks worth of Doucettes at a time, it saves time in the long run. What also takes time, is using the old medications first, then using the new to finish up, then counting the extra and adding them to the new Vial. By marking the number of Pills on the Vial with a Sharpie, it allows me to keep track and never run out when they are needed. By 4:00 I had everything filled, recorded and put away until the next time.

For supper we enjoyed Cheddar/Tomato Soup, along with a slice of Fruit Cake for dessert.

We were supposed to go to our daughter-in-law Jen’s tomorrow, but she texted a change of Plans. Both Haigan and his mother are down with the Flu, and she doesn’t want to share. We’ll try to get together later this week.

We finally watched a Hallmark Movie to finish our evening.
