Downsizing in advance of my move to Costa Rica has uncovered many gems that I had long since forgotten about. I’ll share some of them in future blog posts here. It turns out that Mrs. Rossetti sent me the stories I wrote when I was her student in junior high. She liked them so […]

Tomorrow Lisa and I will have our taxes prepared and finalized FREE by an AARP-certified-and-authorized tax preparation assistant at the Puyallup Senior Center. I may owe a little, or I may get a little back. I’m right on the cusp, so don’t know. No biggy, either way. I have enough in savings to pay more

I am feeling SOOO accomplished! Take a look at my den today: The items on the shelves are destined to various friends’ homes or to two big notebooks I’ve ordered to retain some original photos and other treasures. Three weeks ago, as you may recall, I could barely turn around in this den

It’s an amazing feeling to have 239 my 280+ journals preserved to PDFs. The balance will be done in the next few days. I hope to finish them all by Sunday night but I have a garage sale again on Saturday, so I won’t be available to preserve any then.) It has been a massive

I had an interesting cryptic dream last night. I haven’t dreamt of De in ages, but I guess this journal preservation project has re-energized those synapses because last night I was on a western lot with him. We were chatting it up when another cowboy-costumed dude, who had a box over his head and

I have arranged a StarTrek/DeForest Kelley Exhibit in my living room so it’s easy to access. It’s right off my garage, so I can monitor both places while standing in one place. And I’ve made friends with so many of the frequent visitors to my sales that I can put one of them in charge

I’m more than half finished with my journal preservation project. If I keep up the same pace, I ought to be finished by the middle of February. That would be lovely because then my only remaining daily task (other than livestock care) will be getting better at Spanish than I am now. And I

The issue is with CenturyLink. They said they could solve the problem if I upgrade to a new modem to get faster speed, but since it would cost upward of $500 all told to do that, and I’m going to be canceling the service in September when I move to Costa Rica, I declined, saying
