55 and still alive
55 and all that jive
got the drive at 55
Now I can start getting a few of those cool senior citizen discounts.
30% at AMC theaters (there are none in Wilmington)
10% at Chili's (but I don't eat out)
10% at some Hotels (I don't travel)
10% at Ross (I can never find anything I like and that fits)
10% at Wendy's (fast food, yuck)
Well Crap. Never mind.
60's. Come on 60.
Anyway, I had a pretty good birthday. Jim got me a wine press and Gmar gave me 100 bucks.
I did have one dilemma. On your birthday, Silver Coast winery gives 30% off on a case, but they don't open til 11 and close at 6 and are 1.5 hours away. We start bridge at 1 pm and end at 4:30, then groceries. So the logistics just didn't work out. Oh well. I'm going tomorrow to get my quarterly offering anyway.
I took my walkies early this morning when it was 61 degrees. I think I can do this. The dogs were eager, but Buddy got too excited and had a little seizure. I did some tinkering with the vereigated bay tree. I don't think any of the cuttings are going to make it, so I found a branch low down that was vereigated. So I nicked it a little, buried it and weighed it down with a log to keep it buried. Maybe it will put out roots in about 6 months. We'll see.

I took the last of my dried soy beans and made more tofu. I haven't done that in a while.
And I learned something new with the blog. Movies!
so, for the first time ever, now playing, Farmer Ann's Cockers.
bak bak
Yay! Baybays!
ReplyDeleteI feel your dilemma on the age thing. I'm only looking forward to this one because it means that my insurance will go down. And I can rent cars cheaply.
Oh well.
Happy Birthday! I've been wondering what "T" day was. I don't really celebrate my birthday anymore, unless I need an excuse to buy something for myself, then I tell my hubby about it.
ReplyDeleteI think I will only do 5 year birthdays from now on. Just for the discounts I can add.
