Mary Kay, I have thought about doing the same thing but the 2 dogs are going to keep me in this condo longer. I have looked into a place in Grand Junction since Durango has little to offer. But the doggies......

The senior community residence that my DM is in takes small pets. I see a few dogs every time I visit.

I know that a couple near here do too. The problem is that most allow only one and I have two. I realized that would be a problem when I took in the Chihuahua. But he needed me.

Good morning.

It is another sunny day with clear skies and already 68°F at 09.03am.

I hope everyone is okay and I look forward to chatting with y'all on Fridays fleet reports and Daily.

An update from overcast Western Colorado.  My recovery from the second surgery is going well, and I will get my stitches out later this afternoon.  @JazzyV, I can come off the Cares list as there are others with many more needs.  I still can't wear my glasses, and not sure how long it will be to return to normal in that aspect of life.  I appreciate all the prayers and good wishes.  

 

That’s great news!  Hope your recovery continues and you can wear your glasses soon 🤞

One thing I have learned through this ordeal is that as a living alone senior, I can't handle some aspects of life very well.  My step-kids have all been wonderful, but I don't want to be a burden on them.  So, in August I will be moving to a seniors apartment complex where I won't even have to cook, clean, or handle transportation (if necessary).  Of course, this entails a huge downsizing from 1600 sf duplex to less than 800 sf one bedroom apartment.  After 45-1/2 years of marriage, and 6+ years of widowhood, I have done upsizing and downsizing depending on various moves.  Now, this will be the big one.  I am happy with my decision, but wondering how I will get it all done.  I am lucky in that there is a senior relocation company that I can utilize.  The happy part is that I can travel any time I want (BHB here I come), and not have to worry about anything!

 

Good for you, Mary Kay.  I’ve only been a widow for just over a year and find myself contemplating the same thing.  I have a lot more stuff to get rid of and donate before that can come to fruition.  I fear Ivan is too large to be permitted though even though he is a good dog.

I hear you all too well, Susan.  Our dogs have to come first.

Hi friends! I always try to be myself, and I'm smiling powerfully today because I just snagged an upgrade from inside cabin to verandah on the VoV next month! On which we will visit Lerwick! Prayers raised and cheering where appropriate!

 

YAY Edi !  What a nice upgrade 👍 You will really enjoy it on the VOV 🙂. So happy for you 🙂
