Hi Maren!
Nice to hear from you. Sorry for the slow reply. I'm behind on about everything these days!
You mentioned Nick is now 28. How is that possible? :-) I have this mental image of him as a kid. The problem with that scenario is that it raises the question: 'What does that make me?" Next subject...
I'm extremely busy doing my thing, managing several business activities, 5 dogs (see below) and trying to enjoy life as much as possible. I really love where I live and the lifestyle I've been able to achieve. Life is good.
You know what a die hard Packer fan I am and have been all my life. Well, I'm not going to watch the game today. I've just lost interest, sad to say. Injuries have forced them to play with half the team being reserves, Rodgers is out and this whole 'take a knee at the national anthem' BS and the political correctness from NFL leadership has just left me cold. Not that anyone cares, just a sidenote.
Early October Tropical Storm 'Nate' swung very low in the Caribbean and being that I'm on top of a mountain ridge it hit Panama (we never get hurricanes) and hit me pretty hard here. I was in bed all night listening to trees crashing all around me just waiting for one to come through the roof and say hello. Thankfully it didn't happen but it did leave a mess. I was stranded for 3 days with the road blocked in both directions. No water for day 1. No electric for 3 days and no internet or cell phone for about a week. Had to break out the old camping skills! |
