This has been a busy day. We were promised that retirement would be a piece of cake. We didn't ask for details so we are surprised at the number of offers, attractive activities and duties we want to fulfill that spring up.
Lynn is engaged in an online tour of a foriegn country that runs three hours a day for three days running. Our learning in retirement group has presentations we don't want to miss. I stayed with an elderly man so his wife could get some shopping in. We buy a certain kind of bread that is now only sold in one local store. We are both in book clubs and that means reading the books as well as deciding on next reads, keeping a record of next to be reads and attending discussions. It is unhealthy to sit all day so we both get 45 minutes walks in as well as some biking. We take yoga once a week. Some piece of cake!
We have blinds on our windows that are accordion-like and in one, the mechanism that lifts and holds the blind up, failed. I picked up the repaired blind this morning. The woman who runs the blinds shop can remove and re-install the blinds in a flash. I took the repaired blind home and worked a half hour trying to get it up. I finally called my son-in-law and got him to agree to help me.
