The Seniors Do Wednesday

Wednesday, April 22, 2009


Wake up at 7. Take meds.Yawn.R leaves to get the paper in town. Hear him come back at 7:45. Yawn. Get up. R has put together Senior Breakfast ... yada, yada, yada

Go rest on couch in Great Room. Read funnies in paper. Read rest of paper. DONE WITH CURRENT BOOK! WOO HOO! Remind self that Book Club IS TONIGHT!

Get up off couch at 9:30. Tidy the kitchen. Make the bed. Clean the coffee pot. R showers and is off to a dental appointment.

Check on the Veggie Babies. Nice day, so put them in the Greenhouse, and wish them a wonderful time outdoors.

Downstairs to the Office. Tackling the pile of work that needs to be sorted. Get done about Noon. R comes home. 2 cavities. Bad boy! P freshens up and is out the door to meet with a girlfriend for lunch and writing discussion.

Meet at friend’s house. Stopped at Subway to pick up healthy lunch sandwiches: P has a Veggie on 8 grain, no cheese, and a V8 juice to drink. Very pleasurable time at the girlfriend’s discussing art, writing and whatever else comes to mind. Planning to start a Writer’s Group. Leave about 3.

Home, and into Home Office. R has left for Golf with the Buddies. P works on more ‘stuff’ that is waiting to be done.

Garden. Take the flower stalks off the three rhubarb plants. Pull about 6 dandelions from the North Perennial Bed.

Quick Dinner snack. Wednesday is a no cook ‘girly night’. Peanut Butter, Yogurt and a big Iced Tea. With Benefiber. Of course.

Book Club at 6:30. Remarkably, P is not stoned for scheduling a book of 840 pages, and almost everyone read it and enjoyed it! Wow! New member of Book Club shows up, too. Nice evening. Next book is: Loving Frank by Nancy Horan. Everyone seems relieved that it is only 356 pages. Home by 7:45.

Walk around neighborhood. Quick walk to enjoy the nice night and get some exercise. Bring in the happy Veggie Babies. Heirloom tomatoes, Cabbages, Cilantro & Basil. Notice that our lettuce is up!

Back to the Office. Work on Cow Picture for friend at Farm. Check email once more time.

9 pm. Upstairs to comfy couch. Glass of red wine. R the golfer home. Watch a bit of TV, and call it a night!
