In response to "Paul McCartney "

Great choice of artist and song. I love Yesterday, it's such a thought invoking song.

In response to "Chores"

I've been banned from ladders too. In 2021 I fell off a ladder 11 steps down, broke both of my feet painting the trim on our house before we sold it. I made the move to Las Vegas with my feet in air casts and crutches.

I would outsource window washing at this point, the list may grow as I age.

I do chair yoga too, I enjoy it. I should check out one of the local pools, it would be a lot easier on my knee that hasn't recovered yet.

In response to "Letting go "

Yes, I agree.
I've let go of many things, but only after bugging myself for a few minutes or so. Yes, letting go helps most of the time, within reason.
And I remember that case. That is something I can't wrap my mind around, though. That man must have been a saint.

Thank you, Joy.i think we’re of that age group who tend to be too independent for our own good sometimes.

In response to "Asking for help"

I, too, am very reluctant to ask for help. My sons, especially the younger one, are always ready to help, but I don't ask them unless they ask me if I need this or that to be taken care of.
I hope your daughter heals and feels a lot better so you won't have to worry so much. I can see how difficult it is to be a parent especially in your case. Hang in there!

In response to "Cruelty "

There are so many instances of abuse to all animals, I question who the more intelligent species is because clearly it isn't us.

In response to "Gambling "

I like the idea that some of the proceeds go to charities. I wish that happened here but Nevada doesn't participate in the lotteries available. I think it has a lot to do with the casino's not wanting any competition.

List

Prompt: Ten Things To Do In January" says Charmaine J. Forde

• Read a good book
• Get a Library Card
• Walk 30 minutes a day
• Send a Birthday card to a friend
• Invest in a Fitness Tracker
• Buy a Coin jar and save those quarters and nickels
• Donate to a Charity
• Volunteer 45 minutes of your time to an Organization
• Take a Yoga Class
• Volunteer at Bingo night a Nursing Home

Have you done anything on the list? What would you add to the list for a January activity?

I have joined a yoga class although it’s chair yoga, not so ambitious.
Yes I did send a birthday card to my sister-in-law for her 83rd.
I have read a good book. We all live here by Jojo Moynes. It is a Romcom, not my usual genre but I enjoyed it.
I already have my library card. Have had it for over fifty years.
Definitely donated to a charity or two in December.
I walk in the swimming pool for forty minutes a day. Does that count?
The only other thing I’m adding is to write more.
