Good morning, peeps! Yes, I'm borrowing from Marcher, lol!

Do I gather that it's time to congratulate Marcher and Ken?!

DD, I'm so happy you stopped in yesterday. I, too, was certain that you were still sober and are very busy living your gloriously sober life. Not all who drop out of sight have relapsed and that's a good thing to remember. We come here and stay according to our own needs.

Marcher, Queen's day sounds very confusing, indeed! And Dee, HRH, can be hilarious

Shoes, I waited a lot of years to get to retirement and then it took me 3 years to start enjoying it at long last. I'm still learning how to relax and do fun things after working 60-80 hours a week for too many years. I thought I knew what the challenges would be in retirement but was so very wrong. It has been challenging but I'm starting to relax more and now can't imagine working like I did before. Some people think I'm nuts to go to a retirement community at my age but I love the idea of the humdrum stuff being taken care of and having all kinds of things to do when I feel like it.

gotta run to take a shower before they cut off our water for repairs!
