Blog time 0930 sitting in office

Up this morning at 0630.  It was 46 degrees.  Bundled up and headed to the Gathering Place for breakfast.  Our waitress asked if we were having our usual.  We said yes and without any notes she got the order perfect.

Saturday breakfast is always very relaxing.  We take our time and outline our plans for the weekend and week ahead.  After breakfast we took a short drive.

At home, Nancy is starting the laundry and I am getting ready for a bike ride.  Today’s ride was 9.6 miles.  Finished ride at noon.

Showered and then a quick lunch.  I made a quick trip to Meijer’s to fill up the Escape.  Today I filled with premium gas at $3.99 per gallon.

At 1500 we headed to Costco.  Nancy has to pick up a prescription.  Never go to Costco on a Saturday.  The place was jammed.

I read today that the Chicago Museum of Art fired all their Docents about 100.  The reason they were all white women.  Good grief!  The Woke folks have lost their minds.

I think of Nancy who has volunteered at the front desk of Meijer Gardens for 20 years.  All her coworkers are retired white women.  This nonsense has got to stop.

I did find time to take a short nap.

For dinner we had Tamales with fruit.  Very good.

We watched Shakespeare and Hathaway this evening.  A very good episode with a happy ending.  

After we watched an episode of Ted Lasso.  Not a very good episode.

The temperature was dropping when checked the Courtyard just before bed.  However, the moon and stars were out.  No critters spotted.
