Another Day with Mom

I spent the day with Mom.
She was very happy with what she accomplished this morning -- we went to KMart and she was able to find several pair of shorts, capris, and casual shirts (all 100% cotton) and came away spending less money than she expected.
Next stop, the grocery store. We went to the Giant that was having a grand opening and I showed her how to use the new gadget that let's her check her purchases as she goes. When we got to check out (we were in the express lane because we had already recorded all her purchases) she won a gift basket with all kinds of goodies. She was very pleased.
We headed home to work on her FIOS adjustments, but that's another story.

Settling in

It's been a little bit more than a week since I returned to my retirement and I have read 6 books, visited with Mom once (I'm going again tomorrow), had lunch with the ladies golfers, played bridge twice, and visited the library 4 times. I have been very busy with my books so I decided that my book blog was just not correctly named so I changed it. The book blog is now called CHELI CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT BOOKS! and you can reach it at http://chelicantlivewithoutbooks.blogspot.com/

Back to retirement

I'm officially released from the workforce, so I'm starting my celebration today by reading for 12 straight hours. It's a mystery-thon that you can see on my reading blog.

I've sent Tim to the golf course with instructions to have a good time and leave me alone! It's such a hardship for him to have to spend the day playing goof in the sunshine but I know that the girls in the grill at the Country Club and his lady golfer friends will watch out for him.
