Typical Tuesday

There was nothing spectacular about this day. Nothing special or memorable to rave about.  Yet, as I am about to go to bed, I realize I feel happy and content.  This was a good day.

I had a long chat with my friend Karen Green. If you know Karen, you're a lucky person. If you don't know her, trust me when I tell you she's amazing. She's an optimist. An inspiration. A hoot. A survivor. A fighter. And she's funny. I chuckled to myself the rest of the day after my visit with her. It's a blessing to have a friend who makes you laugh.

I had a long list of errands to do today. Do you enjoy crossing things off the list? I do. I'm feeling very satisfied that today's list is done and tomorrow's list seems doable.

Met with my book club and discussed a book I loved (And the Mountains Echoed). I missed my book buddies over the summer break and I was so happy to see them. The shrimp salad wrap at McGregor's was a delicious treat. What a great few hours!

Brenda, Ronnie, and I then went to the casino. No, I didn't win another $500, but who cares? We had fun. We played trivia. I drank a delicious frozen margarita.  Win win.

Since I've been retired, people frequently ask me what I do all day. When I try to answer that question, I'm usually stumped. I know I'm always busy and the days turn into weeks, turn into months, and turn into years.  But if I had to tell you exactly what I did with my time, I'd be at a loss for words . Just what do I do all day???   Well, I figured out the best answer to that question tonight - Whatever I want! 

I hope you had a good day today.  Here's hoping for a good tomorrow.
