Love the candle scents of autumn. You just gave me an idea on what to do with the dining room table. It’s another work day here as well. Hubby is back in bed and both knees and back are quite painful. I will use some salve later and that should help somewhat.

Interesting Trivia chat last night. A few new faces dropped in. I did two messages to the Mods. One was in the Arcade and I did a ditto in CS. So far no replies. It’s funny, in a sense, that they can manage to get one question up during the night. You would think they would be able to do all six. Well, 200 points is 200 points.

By the way, Faire’s meme is up and I wrote a short note in the Heidi thread. Hope she sees it and gives an update.

The 55 and over group in the communities in Florida remind me of a convalescent/nursing home and maybe assisted living. It seems to be a universal theme and makes me feel that it is one step closer to a bedroom you share with someone who is not related to you. It’s the same games over and over again. Bingo, Scrabble, Card and Board Games all held in the afternoon and maybe following the last meal of the day. Sorry, but it reminds me of the time my MIL’s dementia worsen and the help did not understand the situation. Reluctantly, we had to make that decision. However, in Florida, the Assisted Living is altogether different from the ones I have seen North. Here, a person can attend a matinee or even a night program such as a live show at one of the many theaters. There are a couple of theaters that offer new films at $2. Since a kitchenette is included in their villa or apartment, they can shop at local markets. Vans take them wherever and whenever for doctor appointments, etc.. They even have cooking classes and many take courses at the local community colleges and colleges. It’s a different world here, but, you do have to do your homework.

Well, I will be taking advantage of not shopping today and get some work done. I am still moving things around on my countertops in the kitchen. The bar area is again a disaster as I push things around to make one decision after another. Tomorrow I will do some weeding before the HOA gets after me for not trimming bushes and getting those nasty things out of the shrub areas. We have pickup on Wednesdays for the trimmings and weed pulling. I like that I do not have to make a trip to the dump.

By the way I did purchase the Jabbin Jack from HSN and it should arrive sometime today. It was awfully cute and I really could not resist. Walmart has it for $98, Target is selling it for $50 and Zuilly is $39.95 and Amazon has it for $50 and above the last time I looked. There seems to be different manufacturers which is why the cost seems to be higher.

Please make sure you take your sinus meds before working outside. This is sinus weather time you know. I also carry Excedrin for when those awful headaches strike. All I need is one and within minutes the headache disappears. Hope you get everything done before it rains. It is cloudy here with temps in the low 90s at the moment. Humidity is low and will be allnext week.
Have a great day. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
