Here we are starting the first full week of March and looking forward to the first day of spring in 13 days!

 TERRY

Terry woke up about 6:15 this morning.  She has read the paper and is now watching TV.  She does have a Dr. appt later today as there is a mark on her right arm that needs to be looked at.  I am sure it is nothing but about once a year she goes to the dermatologist to have things looked at and most of the time she ends up getting one or two things burned off.  I am guessing this is what she usually has done.  Anyway it will be good for her to get up and out of the house as that does not happen often these days.

There is not much of anything planned for the week.  I do, this week, have tennis Monday-Friday so that is good.  I also plan to get papers in order for taxes.  I really should get that done as I suspect we will get some kind of refund as we usually do.  I know that I should make some changes as some years the refund is fairly large but then is is always a good feeling knowing we do not have to send in a check.

We do have some money in investments and when you get OLD you need to take out what is called an MRD as I think that is "minimum required distribution".  I have taken care of that and it should happen near the end of the month.  Terry's amount comes to a good amount and mine comes to a couple of Starbuck coffees and maybe a nice ice cream cone!

I usually get a chuckle out of Pickles and today I thought it was extra good!  I think that would be easy to have happen!!!  NOT the going with part.

I thought maybe having a slight beard would make me look more important so I have not shaved for maybe 4 or 5 days.  BUT after looking at myself I decided that the whiskers do nothing for me and they may even make me look older than 75 BUT I have decided to give myself maybe a few more days.  If anyone has an opinion just leave me a comment on the blog!!!

No, Terry's appt is at noon and I am scheduled to play tennis from 10:30-12:00 so I need to call soon as they open at 9:00 and see if I can get her appt for in the afternoon.  

Wow, Amy Lee has a birthday this Friday and then Mary has a birthday next week.  I do not know how I got so lucky to have those two in the family.  I still can remember the day Cynthia was born and Gail was on cloud nine as she NEEDED some female company in the family.  Then when Amy and Mary were added she was so excited.  

Some how I did NOT finish this so will sign off and post.  Someone in the family reminded me but I will not say who!!!  Of course I had FP this AM and actually have gotten some work done today.  So here I am signing off with a hope that everyone had a good day and maybe even got some work done!!!
