Musings on anything. |
|
My blog was filled up. I'm too lazy to clean it out. So I started a new one. |
| It gets so busy this time of year. Every organization to which you belong will have a social of some kind. Every church will have extra events. Family members whom you haven't seen in ages will stage a dinner; of course, you will go and take some contribution, preferably homemade. I am not an outgoing person. These days I don't host anything on my own. Yet, I have to check my calendar almost daily to see what's going on today or later this week. Even getting retired people together at a mutually agreeable time is difficult. Those oldies can't drive after dark. They have art class one day every week or bridge club. They want to be there with everyone else but just can't find the availability. Inevitably, they pick a restaurant I can't stand. I have to settle for a lousy place and just get a small salad or skip the event. It seems like when you're working full-time, you have more of a social life. You always find the time to do it. You even find time for rehearsing special choir music for Christmas (which might begin in September if you have to memorize the music). This time of year always goes by faster. Seems even faster when you retire. |
