eh? speak up!

I received a letter today, addressed to me, advertising 2 hearing aids for the price of 1! I have also received an offer for a senior rate on a magazine I subscribe to. That's what I get for giving my address as a community where only 55+ year olds can buy homes.

So join me at Sun City's CVS pharmacy on Tuesday and I'll give you one of my hearing aids.

I have taken a job at a bookstore. I need a bit of money and a bit of human interaction while I wait in Arizona for my imminent move to Australia. And so for the last 4 days, I have been shelving books, selling books, helping customers find books, smelling books, wishing I had more time to read books! It's actually an enjoyable job, and I am glad to be doing it. And very happy that I can take books home to read for free, and buy others for a healthy discount. :-)

Except ... that I feel like I have never worn shoes before. The first day, after 8 hours on my feet, my toes were screaming! If only the job required flip-flops, all I have worn for the last 4 months.

And finally, a special HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my mom. 59. Can you imagine? Ha. Love you, mom!
