Well it's 11;15 in the evening and I can't get to sleep. Two reasons: 1.) Today I was exhausted and on top of that I walked all the way down to the Town Center and bback; 2.) I went to a Nats game and I met Howie from the rooms. We finally won a game it was so exciting. 9 to 2 against the World Champion Phillies. My season ticket was in the midst of Pillies fans--most of them College Age. My seeat mate was going to school in Baltimore, since this is Thursday she can stay up late without any classes on Friday. Wish they had had that when I was in school.
I had a small triumph. On Good Friday I had a harrowing drive home. I was a wreck after driving 6 miles in the dark without anti-anxiety Rx. I forgot to take my medicine. I was going to take a bus but they don't run that late, so I thourght I'd bag tonights game.
Good old Bon pointed out that it is much shorter to Greenbelt Station and the roads are well lit. I drove home in the dark without fear and trembling. I also took my Rx and was able to do the escelators without a panic attack.
All in all a great day. I'm just still wound up from all the excitement.
It's funny that my retirement has proven to be a time in my life to do the things I've always wanted to do--like have a Season Ticket plan and buy property in Florida and excape the cold.
Speaking of Florida we found a two bedroom two bath at Top of the World for 50,000-we could get it for 45K because we are paying cash. But that is still 5K over our self imposed Limit of $40K. Two bedrooms are great--1100 sq. feet but is the 2nd bathroom worth 5K. It is on the ground floor with two doors for cross ventilation.
It has a Southern Exposure. Bonnie and I really need to think about that one. Another plus is that it comes fully furnished down to plates etc..
Live is good.
I need to do some computer work and then go to bed. Signing off at 12:15
