Retirement……..I was never this busy when I was working but, I guess, staying active will make me feel younger and spry (or so it is said). I feel good and being here at Imperial Plaza is a way of making sure I stay good. I finally received the tire pump for my bicycle and, weather permitting, I will start back to bicycling. My two son-in-laws want to cycle with me when they can. That should be fun. I just can’t wait for the three of us to be bicycling in Bryan Park and around the grounds of Imperial Plaza.
The White Squirrel is open. It is a small café, next to the restaurant, and it serves, for now, breakfast and lunch. Their menu is great and the prices are even better. What makes the place so good is the serving of beer and wine. I have been there twice, one breakfast and one lunch, and I have complaints. Maybe it will get better as time passes but I have my doubts. The service is slow, you have to hunt for someone to get a bill and the tables are always short of sugars in the bowl. I guess I’ll have to wait because I don’t want to say anything to the supervisors and get someone in trouble or even fired.
One good thing about being retired is you have all the time in the world to do whatever. All this week I did just that, I did whatever and that amounted to nothing. I just can’t explain what it felt like except that it felt good. I believe I accomplished some good writing with all that relaxed time. A couple of articles I’ve been working on are almost ready for submission. After I finish this I will get back to work on them and try to have it ready by tomorrow night.
I have a writers club meeting in the morning. It is usually the third Saturday but the third Saturday in April will run into Easter. The writer’s club is a great group of people and those of you that write and don’t belong to a club should consider joining one. There are several here in the Richmond area and each one is different yet the same. In other words, they tend to accomplish the same thing by meeting at different times on different days with different people.
By the way, I was told the article I did two weeks ago did not print out. Everything is there except for the body and I have tried to put the body in place without any luck. If I have people that want that article reprinted, I will do so, just give me the word. Until the next time……Take care, be good and keep reading. It really helps if you would pass my address on to others and hit the like button. This way I won’t think you want a dislike button. Bye-bye!
