This is embarrassing

Dirty Dan hanging out in the rain
Yes, I know: this is yesterday's post, once again being composed on a Wednesday. At the coffee shop this morning, John said, "Hey, you didn't write a post yesterday." I was aware of that, but it wasn't until the middle of the night last night when I realized I had, once again, forgotten.

I snagged that picture of the statue of Dirty Dan, whose website tells me that he was considered the founder of Fairhaven, off of Facebook. I see this statue in various states, from covered with rain like this, to wearing a considerate woolen scarf when it's really cold, and in the summer he's been known to sport sunglasses. The birds like to sit with him sometimes, too.

Anyhow, this time next week I'll be with my sister Norma Jean, and hopefully I'll be enjoying the Y's outdoor pool with her. She swims more than a mile every weekday, but I'll be lucky to last for twenty minutes. Then I'll go inside and ride the stationary bicycle while I wait for her to finish. I looked at the weather ahead, and it looks like it will be in the mid-70s and just about perfect! Wish I could just transport myself there, but I'll be spending the entire day on Monday in travel mode.

  2. It's only you who has determined your posting schedule must be Tuesdays and Saturdays. Most of us don't keep track. We just like it when you do post. :-)

  4. There's some value in setting a schedule for posting. At least you get things done. I don't have a schedule and when I get busy I don't post.

  5. I thought that when we retire we could set our own schedule!

  6. Just settle in your seat, shut your eyes, and think of 70+ degree weather!

  8. When ever you blog it is fine. Here I thought you were already there in Florida. Silly me. Lately it is hard to keep track of days. We have the Dr okay to go home later today, kinda scary after the last time we went home, I may keep a bag packed. The hospital is filled with flu. Hope you don’t get the flu, it is deadly this year.

  10. Blogging every day would be a big job! Once a week is plenty for me. Plus, my stats are down. That makes me down on blogging. But, it always cheers me up to visit yours. And of course, that you're still visiting mine after all these years. Thanks!

  11. Don't worry, most of us are retired and aren't sure what day it is anyway. Can't wait to hear of your Florida adventures.

I really appreciate your comments! If you see a word verification box here, just ignore it. I don't use the darn thing and Blogger is trying to get us to use it, I guess. Ignore it and your comment will still appear.
