Hi All,

Today is officially Memorial Day. Is anyone doing anything special over this holiday weekend?

Ours was pretty low key. We watched the delayed Indy 500, and then the Nascar Coca-cola 600. Nascar always does a great job of honoring veterans during this race. They have the name of a veteran who has died displayed on every car and their family members there to see it and share their stories.

It was a beautiful weekend, but we have thunderstorms rolling in later this afternoon.

So, check-in and let us know what you're up to.

I also take my latte with two pumps skinny vanilla but I usually have to get it myself.

Just waiting for more rain. Last night there was a real 'storm blast'. We did not have any damage and didn't see any when walking our dog. Hopefully, the pending front will just be rain. I sure hope that none of you experience anything too severe.

We are hoping to BBQ this afternoon. It has been raining on and off all day. The wind kicked up so I brought the awning in for now.
There is a guy in the park who "walks " his dogs with a golf cart. He drives the fast walk along.
I will be playing Taps at 3pm local time like I do every year. There is a large military base close by so I'm sure there are many service people in the area.

Don’t ruin my stories with your logic.

This was a quiet week but next week the fun begins.

The kids start soccer and baseball. That's 2 evenings a week.

We are also starting a program called Walk with Ease. It is 3 days a week and lasts 6 weeks. We learn how to deal with arthritis as we age and to exercise with it. We have always exercised but it will be fun to learn about arthritis and how we can better live with it. Should be interesting.

I am also going to be in a focus group led by a Professor at UWGB. It is a study about aging and she has a group of people 50+.
LOL, she has been really nice to me and I have a sneaky hunch that I am one of the oldest folks chosen. This should be really interesting and I am looking forward to it.
