OK, I'm back but I don't know for how long.

Tuesday: We had the appraiser in to appraise our house for the reverse mortgage. A nice older lady who seemed to find our condo a nice place. Hopefully, it'll get us more money in our line of credit. We'll see.

My wife had her sister over for a girl's day. They watched their kind of movies and my sister-in-law stayed for dinner (baby back ribs with cole slaw and mashed potatoes - all fixed by me, of course).

Wednesday: Our day to do nothing. Ain't old age/retirement great.

Thursday: We took my wife's first trip out of the condo after her hip replacement (excepting, of course, her trip to have her staples out). We visited her mother and father in the assisted living/memory care apartment they have. They're 95 and 89 and on this visit her mother never did get it really straight that my wife was her daughter.

Friday: My day to visit with the old guys at the senior center (I'm the youngest member of the "Woodchucks"). The member who normally picked up the blind member wasn't there so I did it. And delivered him back home, of course. He became blind due to blood clots that formed behind his eyes. Really nice, intelligent guy, used to be a stock broker.

Saturday: Tomorrow we visit our friends in the morning and play some cards. They live about 25 miles from us so I'm sure my wife will be pooped by the time we get home. Promised her we'd get corn dogs at Superamerica on the way home. That's one thing I like about her, she's a cheap date.
