Hi Geri, Peter Fonda is a has been he is probably trying to make a name for himself.
Gary, Charles Krauthammer was a remarkable man and I wish some of the young journalists today would learn a lot from him. We will certainly miss him. May he rest in peace.
I have been watching the news more this week and the liberals are going crazy. Most of the liberals don't get the real news because most of the news media does not cover the news if it doesn't agree with their political views. They all talk from the same talking points and I am tired of their lies and how they twist the news stories by adding their own twist to make the story fit their view point. The Trump family are good examples of how the liberals write fake news about them.

Well I guess my problems are over at Walmart. I just got fired on my third coaching. I guess It's time to just retire and figure out what to do with my life. I was thinking about family history / genealogy. I was not that surprised. The demands were becoming overwhelming. Once I figure out what I'm going to do with my life and develop some self-discipline I think I'll be happier. Income is not a huge issue but I may have to cancel Nutrisystem in order to afford Medicare and a supplement and be more careful with my expenses. I try to see the silver linings. It will free me up to do a lot of things my Walmart schedule wouldn't let me do. Things like clean the church, family history work, maybe take classes, home projects and the like, but I do lack self discipline to actually do all these things.

Gary, well I am sorry you got fired and I am sure you would rather have retired on your terms. But I do know that you will soon wonder how you ever found time to go to work and you sound like you have some good ideas on how to spend your time. Pretty soon you will wonder how you ever found time to go to work. Our friend Ginny has just retired. Happy retirement to both of you.
I read on the internet today that Press Secretary Sarah Saunders was kicked out of a restaurant in Virginia because she worked for the President. The server had apparently seated her when the owner told her that she had to leave. From what I understand two other people were asked to leave restaurants this week.

First day off (actually this one was already planned) I went to my niece's wedding out at the Golf Club. I had never been out there. The ceremony was conducted by a nephew who is a lawyer licensed to perform marriages. Keep it in the family, huh? After the ceremony was a dinner and a few other activities, but the place was so noisy I could hardly hear people talking to me. Tomorrow will be church so that will also get me out of the house. Monday I need to see my financial advisor about setting up an income stream from my investments and look into Medicare coverage and perhaps a supplement. After that I am wide open.
I have never seen the hatred and divisiveness so deep in this country. It's a sad day when a public official can't enjoy a meal out.

I don't see how they can get away with asking Sarah and others to leave a restaurant. Look at what happened when those people were in Starbucks just sitting taking up space and not ordering anything. Also how about the bakers that refused to make a cake with a gay couple figurines on top.
Gary sorry for the loss of your job. I've heard horror stories from employees of walmart. You'll do fine. You have investements and I'm guessing you have a retirement from former jobs and also SS. As for nutrisystem, you can lose weight without that. I did and if I can, anyone can. I also probably have a lot less money than you do. and don't forget to get a plan d even if you're not on meds because if you try to get one later they can deny or at least charge a high penalty and you never know when you may need expensive meds. So be sure to get either a supplement or an advantage plan and the part d if meds are not included in your supplement/advantage.It also sounds like you have plenty to do and as Meg says you'll soon wonder how you had time to work. I'm sure your church has many volunteer opportunities.

Thanks for the support everyone. I am sure I will be fine. I have been drawing SS for a couple years and I already have some investment income. I have an appointment with my financial advisor to set up an additional income stream and to transfer my Walmart 401k into my Edward Jones IRA or something, and will cancel Nutrisystem - might go back to some tried and true WW recipes. I can shop the grocery ads instead of doing all my shopping at Walmart. I have lots to do right now but need to come up with something satisfying to do that will get me out of the house.

Just wanted to say hi to everyone. I come back and read. I will be registering soon. Just been lazy on that end.
Gary sorry about your Walmart experience. You will be fine. You never know you might find another opportunity to work part time.

I've been busy. Today will be a busy day. I have to go to Walmart to get a form filled out so I can get Medicare part B. I'm already enrolled in part A. Then I will need to look into a supplement for the rest. After I get the forms to SS then I need to go over to the college and look into enrolling in their wellness center so I can get some exercise. I get free tuition since I am a senior citizen so maybe I can take a class or two. Life is good. I got a $10 / month reduction in my auto insurance rate yesterday. My final Walmart pay deposit went in this morning and it is twice my normal pay since they paid out my unused PTO. I'll probably have to take a reduced income from my investments but I will be ok with senior discounts everywhere.
Wow, justice Kennedy is retiring so Trump can put another conservative on the Supreme Court! It will be a food fight of epic proportions with the democrats resisting everything Trump does, but I am amazed at how much he's done in the past year and a half. Far more than Obama did in his entire 8 years and everything Obama did was designed to make us a 3rd world country.

It was really amazing. I hadn't been on campus for years. I had no idea where anything was. I parked at random and walked up to the nearest building. It was locked, so I went around the corner and walked into the next building. Totally at random, it turned out to be the Student Services building, exactly where I needed to be! The first person I ran into was the wife of my former bishop. She directed me to the desk where I needed to sign up for the Wellness Center. While I was there lo and behold my sister Karen came out of her office and showed me where my other sister, Gayrene, works. Then she took me over to the Wellness Center so I would know where to go. On the way I saw several people I know from church and Walmart. I love this community! God directed my path to be where I needed to be!
Also went to the local Social Security office to sign up for Medicare part B. There was only one person ahead of me! Life is beautiful in a smaller community!
Yes, mad Max has been making a name for herself but she is so looney Trump practically begged the democrats to keep pushing her forward so everybody can see just how looney the democrats are.
