Is anybody doing anything fun/interesting/exciting?
My big excitement for the day included starting a roast in the crockpot that will be cooked to death, pulled, turned into sandwiches for supper. To continue with the never-ending, rollicking good times, I started to tidy up. We know how that goes, eh? Do a little here and there and notice something else that really should get done, and while doing that notice something else that could use some attention. By the time I was done just "tidying up" my tiny little place was spic and span.
Adding to the fun was being able to turn of the !#$%^&*! air conditioning for the day because we actually have cool outdoor temps for a day. Ahhhh. I opened the windows and am breathing real air for a change. Oh, my, how I loathe that a/c! When it's on, the fan stays on. As in, the fan never stops unless the unit is turned off. With the a/c off, there are two benefits: real air and silence!
This is life in the fast lane. I know, I know...y'all can hardly keep up, right?
I cannot help much. I am a nerd monster. What that means is that I love what I call discourse with most anyone about most anything. The odd thing is that I am often able to construct an intelligent conversation about subjects where I may not have much knowledge. I have also the unfortunate capacity to bore the waste material out of people. Waste material, I have never used that term before. I may have invented something new which will eventually be considered to be obscene.
Where was I? I would say there was absolutely nothing wrong with your day. If you had to make a list of things that excite you or just please you, what will that list likely include? For me is would be fishing. I used to go to the casino, but would not recommend that as long as you do not get addicted to it. If you make up ideas why you are not addicted, you are addicted. I like painting. I listen to talking books. I like to paint and listen at the same time. With talking books it is like listening to a movie. I also call it a knowledge injection because you can hear a whole book in a couple of hours. You will be able to find a lot of stuff at your local library. That is if you are a US citizen. If not perhaps your country has talking books. There are various senior groups, senior hiking groups, senior dating clubs, etc. I am sure there is more. But this may give you some more ideas.
