That is all I know except any of us can invite new members. Our membership list is long.........but many people register and do not return.

My to-do list is not nearly as busy as Christmas, but I do have an appointment with my possible new physician. My former physician retired so this is my first meeting today. WIsh me luck. 8-)

Today's high will be in the low 80's. It's gonna feel like the beginning of Autumn.

Sometimes we are wearing gloves by the end of August. I saw brown trees on Åland but am unsure if it is the beginning of fall or the dry summer. Either way I am ready for Christmas weather. :snowwow:


It will be hot here until November but hopefully this October we will be under 100. Fingers crossed because after Christmas in July I am in the mood to decorate.
Either way, after Labor Day or my eyes finish healing, the inside of my home is decorated for Autumn. :peekleaves2:

My new physician is handsome [yes I noticed], compassionate and young. He took almost an hour to get my oral history, write new Rx, advise on health care plan, etc. I am scheduled for an annual physical in October once he has received medical records from my previous doctor. He has a great sense of humor like a Christmas elf! Thanks for the good wishes. :wink:

It's still warm in the 80's but a real Christmas cool down from a few weeks ago. The forecast even showed a low in the 50's soon. :cold:

Been home 2 days and still not completely unpacked. I should pretend it's all Christmas decorations and I'd be unpacked really quick. :lol:

Cold Justice is coming back to the Fall Tv schedule. We love that show. It's like an early Christmas present. :merrygift:

I'm still asking Santa if he can leave me an electronics charging elf for Christmas. Everything I have picked up today has been less than 5%. :elfgrin:
