Not sure why I insist on siting down here every morning, only to get up right away to take my medications.  Somehow I have to reprogram my brain to realize that it is fully awake and needs it's medication to start functioning to start it's day.  I guess this is the kind of thing that a lot of people go through every morning, that's why you have the long line ups at the drive throughs at "Timmy's".  Or where ever people get their favourite blend of coffee in the morning!
  Yesterday Nicole updated me on her arrival back home in Calgary, where she was reunited with Mr Boots.  It seems he will not leave her side, looking for attention all the time.  If she get's up to walk around, he insists on going with her, following her wherever she might go.  Of course he is talking to her all the time, scolding her for being absent in his life for four sleeps.  And as punishment he will allow himself to lay on her, but she is not allowed to pat him at this time!  Talk about being a spoiled brat..  Perhaps by this morning, things may have changed, once Boots realizes that Nicole feeds him more treats than Nathan.  Time will tell!
  I went out to celebrate a friends birthday, yesterday!  When asked how young she is, her reply was one year younger than the year before.  My reply was how are you ever going to retire if you start taking time off of that magical number?  We are all still trying to figure this one out!  It was a great time spent with friends, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DARLENE.  To bad Susan had to work the late shift.
  Still working on sorting things out in the front garage, well sort of.  What I mean is I get some things organized that belong in the tool chest in the back garage, take them back there.  Then I spend some time there reorganizing things to fit there.  Then I discover things that belong with something in the front garage that I am sorting into containers, and then it's back to the front garage.  This is a very time consuming project.  Not to mention, the salvage and garbage that goes into their separate bins in the process.  Hopefully, SOON, this process will be finished!  It is starting to drive me mad, perhaps I am already there.
  This morning I think I shall go out for coffee with Donald if he calls.  One should catch up on the local coffee shop news, whats new in civic politics.  We do have local elections this fall!  Ok, so it's away of getting some humour in ones life.  When coffee is over I always have my work in the garages to come back to, and of course there is the leaves I never got to yet!  Oh the fun things of Building the Simple life......................
