Are you not in England now, Gopher? I received your card, and it (the town) looks very old and beautiful. I feel pangs of envy about your on-going adventures. You certainly deserve all the enjoyment you are now experiencing. How I would love to follow in your footsteps and see all the beauty and charm that you are seeing!
Life here is just as mundane and boring as always, punctuated by a never-ending stream of nurses with notebooks detailing the sameness of my life with meds, followed by instructions to eat more, more, more. I am also instructed to get more sleep. When I explain that one of the meds is responsible for keeping me sleepless, they agree that it is known to do that but I must get more sleep anyway. Rather contradictory, don't you think? However, I am still upright and somewhat mobile, so no complaints.
I see that my oldest cat insists that he is hungry (he's not, but wants the attention), so I'm going to persuade him that the outdoors is a great option to food. He weighs around 20 pounds, so his complaints of imminent starvation are somewhat unconvincing.
It's time to make the living room a little tidier. The cats tend to rearrange the cushions and push the candle holders closer to the edge of the coffee table. It's their way of contributing to the look of the room. I have also learned that leaving a clean pot on the stove convinces them that it is hot, and keeps them off it.
Bye for now, and continue to enjoy your most excellent adventure. I am wishing for your good health, and continued happiness.
