OLDER

                                               We may be slowing down but we still enjoy reading.

                                                We enjoy spending time with family.

                                                 We were happy to have Carol drive us to Sandra and Randy's.

                                                  Randy did a great job barbecuing chicken and beef on a stick.

                                                   We were happy to sit in the cool house.

                                                    Spenser was a nuisance.  He does not like the heat.

                                                    He finally found a place to rest beside a fan.

                                                    Dad took him out for a short walk when we got home.

                                                    We will enjoy a walk early in the morning when it is cool.

                                                     I have been finding it hard to sleep at night

                                                    but during the day I can nap just fine.

                                                   Dad and I are both taking Melatonin now

                                                   It is helpful.


Getting older can be difficult because we cannot do what we used to do.  We can enjoy the beauty of nature and visits from family and friends.  We know we need to rest more .We enjoy a quiet day as well.as the busier ones.  In the past noise and distractions could keep us too busy and stressed.  We accept each day with thankful hearts and quiet spirits.

More and more COVID cases at my work. I did a test again as I have a sore throat and the man in the office next to me is one of the latest victims.

It would seem Randy has kidney stones. He had been complaining of a sore back for a few days but I only clued in when he mentioned the pain had moved lower.
