Happy Saturday Afternoon.
We had such fun in the mountains yesterday. Laughed and talked all the way. Nice to have SIL here for a visit. Bought some sweet cold apple cider and was prepared with our ice chest for the trip home. So good. No change of color for trees yet there, it's been in the 70's and 80's this Fall.
Janet: Buying swimsuits by mail order is a brave thing. Hope they all fit perfectly! High Five on OP eating and mega AP's.
Carol: Glad you found your phone. Two tap classes in a row is ambitious. Wish there was some special treatment to give us more energy.
Sally: How are you?
Well, it's finally cooling off here. One more day of unseasonal heat in the mid 80's. I am tired of summer.
Sweet Dreams Everyone to the East!
Jan

Happy Saturday evening! Dragging my buns in here while I'm thinking about it! I had a wonderful relaxing time in Maui. I'm so glad I decided to go. It was a stress free trip, from leaving out of a closer airport (Ontario) and getting picked up by my sister/friends. Got through the covid screening pretty quickly with uploading vaccine card beforehand and getting my wrist band so no questions on landing. We laid pretty low there, as usual, but the few restaurants we did go to required showing vaccine card and driver's license. Everyone seemed to be pretty covid compliant with masks, unlike what it's become around here!
The week back was grueling and everyone is pretty burned out on our job with the short staff (2 leaving for temp jobs, 1 for a permanent) and no replacements. They will only replace the permanent one but she's been gone since 9/10, the posting has been closed for 2 weeks and boss is still waiting on the bid list to be able to get it filled. It could be another month before an actual start date. I'm seriously thinking of 12/1 as a retirement date.
I hope everyone is well in here. I will do my best at checking in more often! Need to get into a daily habit again. Waves to all!
Nat

Good Morning!!! love, light, blessings, and good health.
Jan so happy to hear about the mountain fun and the cooler temps. Fall is here in the morning and not as hot in the afternoon.
Nat so happy to read you. Maui sounds so lovely. I do understand overwork and job burn out. I hope that the December 1 date works out. I have been retired twice once for three days the other for four. I would love to reduce my work load to 25 or so hours a week but I am not close to that now. I have some remodeling projects to pay for first.
Yes I did: home abs, gym (total body/row), walks, yard, and swim. Some law. I am taking today off. I have not had a full day off in over a month. The downtown festival will keep me away from the library and I cannot handle working from home anymore after the 14 months of enforced working from home. So yard gym in the morning and long walk in the afternoon. Maybe myself read some of those self help books instead of my wonderful British slow horror novel. I am mentally preparing myself for that trip home to check on my parents. Last night was Mass, a lovely walk in the park, and my friend is teaching me how to play volleyball. I am not very good and until I am he thinks better I do not join him for his water volleyball meet up. (this is the same guy I was seeing before, we are seeing each other again, only this time I hopefully have greatly reduced expectations due to his challenges with fidelity)
Okay, moving slowly but that is what this day is going to be all about.
Love, light, blessings, and good health, janet
