Rain, Rain Go Away!

Well Gang, the rain made it here to Caroga Lake, Now I know what everyone has been complaining about. Seems that the roof is not leaking and a good job was done replacing it. With the rain came Dankness and lower temperatures , 56 degrees so I turned on the pellet stove to take away the dampness, we went to bed with most of the windows open last night. Ali just left for school, one test today then back home at 2 or in this case she is off to her friends house down the road to hang out, Bus dropping her off. Brian and I have been going over his test questions , EMT-B test tonight in Albany...Good Luck. Watching Golf on T.V. and coverage at the Bethpage Black(L.I.) course and seems like in rain delay . Seems Brian getting a little home sick...Missing his girl friend, Ashly Poo. He is stuck inside of the house with me and the dogs. We used the time to do test questions but that gets old very fast. Seems like he has so much EMT stuff in his head and it's just falling out and hoping that he does not lose it before the test... The garden is enjoying the rain and plants are just bursting out of the ground. Nothing is ready to be consumed yet except some of the lettuce . After dropping Ali off for her test I stopped by the bee yard and seems they all are inside just keeping out of the rain , watching t.v. , playing cards and drinking Mead.

So that's it from the North Country.... Til Next Time Gang.......Jerry

Welcome Friends

After suffering a heart attack in 2007, it became clear that I had to make some lifestyle adjustments. We were already owners of a rustic cabin in upstate New York. Once we established that my retirement from my job as Secretary to the Chief of Police on Long Island would be a huge financial burden we decided that moving permanently to our unfinished cabin would be the best way to make the necessary changes for my health. After securing "permission" from our youngest daughter, who at 13 would be making the move with us, we made the move in June of 2008. Our four oldest children still reside on Long Island, along with our families and old friends. It has been a tremendous journey, both physically and emotionally, but we've done it! This is the story of our journey, and our ongoing experiences as middle aged lovers of life. We are truly all in this together! Jennifer

Memorable Senior Moments

Today I drove to town for the purpose of picking up a fresh vegetable for dinner. I came home with seeds for the garden, half off chocolate easter eggs, wrapping paper and bows, tape, sponges, garden nippers, bath salts, doilies and facial cream, exfolient and baby oil. No vegetables.
Today I spent a serious amount of time trying to change the channel with the cordless telephone. Scary.
Ever bought reading glasses? I did last week, and in church I was looking down and realized that for ONE WHOLE WEEK I had left the strength sticker (2.00) on the glass lens. Ah, senility. What else can we laugh at?
Have you ever walked around in public with a pair of sunglasses on and your reading glasses propped on top of your head? And then realized you needed to read something and walked around for twenty minutes or so looking for your reading glasses? And all the time they were on top of your head? Me either.
Getting lost in Peebles Parking Lot. Not confused, Lost. I now understand what the "Panic" button is on the car opener. Interesting.
Forgetting WHAT I was going to add to this list. It was something. Oh yes! I spent a considerable amount of time looking for my theatre keys, which are on a long loop. I called home, and Jerry asked "Are they on your neck?" Yes. They were.
